I have spent the last week looking at this set in detail thanks to Al Richter's discovery of a new pose variation for the Mantle. While there may be one pose variation still to be found (jury is out on that but I feel it's possible), I'll leave most of the nuts and bolts to my most recent blog post on this crazy issue:

Long story short, the four players thought to be in the checklist: Bob Gibson, Brooks Robinson, Roy McMillan and Bert Campaneris, appear in lineups in the set but look like No Prints as Captains. I suspect they were replaced by the four pose variations for reasons too involved to go into here but detailed in my blog post. Basically they would have fulfilled the pattern of five players per league per position. Being pulled, it looks like there are 86 players in the set, not 90.
The outgrowth of this is I worked up team checklists for the set, which does not show team affiliations, so here ya go:
