Default T204 cleveland naps missing

Does anyone have and information or speculation on why the t204 set does not contain a single cleveland player in it? addie joss was a star and nap lajoie was one of the best players in that time frame plus no cy young when he was all over every tobacco issue of that time.

Interesting. I never noticed that. The closest you get is Neal Ball.

Could have been contractual issues? Good question.

There are no Pirates either. I believe the manufacturers said that they felt that once Tom Reilly was included in the set, they didn't need anyone else to help draw attention.

Also interesting to note, the White Sox and Phillies only have one player each, and the Tigers just 4, with all other major league teams having at least 7 players included.
