No worries! Here's a quick run-down of toughies (IMO) for '87. As before I may have missed someone or added someone who is no longer considered tough, but you get the gist.
EDIT: Also, Maris TBC was in the '86 set I believe. The impossible TBC in '87 is Clemente.
HOFers-
Gary Carter (base and All-Star)
Kirby Puckett (base and All-Star)
Deceased players-
Dick Howser (died in '87, was around during spring training but that's basically it)
Bo Diaz
Frank Williams
Aurelio Lopez
Donnie Moore
Carmen Castillo
Rod Scurry (tougher than you'd think)
Toughies-
Ricky Wright
Mel Hall (especially if looking for a nice one)
Urbano Lugo
Juan Espino
Al Pulido
Roy Lee Jackson
Randy Myers
Rob Wilfong (I think)
Jackie Gutierrez
Barry Bonds
Andy Allanson
Mike Diaz
Tony Bernazard (base and All-Star)
Terry Forster
Doyle Alexander
A few guys I got in person years ago I have heard are now tough as they don't respond to fan mail. Guys like Brad Havens, Ron Shepherd, Darryl Motley, Jim Traber...I can't verify that as I do little to no TTM.
