Old Judge Players League cards

After reading about the record holders below in the Players League, I was wondering if any of these stars are represented in the series on a Players League team. The cards from this league would be a great and rare sub-set!
Here's the info:
The Players League Triple Crown leaders were Hall-of-Famer Roger Connor with 14 home runs, Pete Browning with a .373 batting average, and Hardy Richardson with 146 RBI. For pitchers, Mark Baldwin had 34 wins, Silver King had a 2.69 ERA, and Mark Baldwin struck out 211 batters.

On June 21 King threw an unofficial eight-inning no-hitter.

Oddly, in its one season of operation, the Players League saw seven triple plays: the Giants on June 14, the Red Stockings on June 30, the Pirates on July 15, the Pirates again on July 30, the Burghers on August 15, Ward's Wonders on September 6, and the Bisons on September 29.[1

I found Connor, O'Keefe, Rourke and Comiskey so far...... what a nice group of cards!
