Help With Some Modern Auto/GU Stuff (Scans Inside)

Hi all,
I was given a large tupperware container by my cousin who was cleaning out after her divorce. She found a large binder and a tupperware container in the bottom of a closet at her home that was filled with cards. Apparently, her (now ex) husband was buying up cards and she never knew about it. So anyway, she was going to toss this stuff out, but asked me first if I'd like to have it. I pulled out the memorabilia and swatch cards and was hoping someone who is knowledgeable on this modern stuff could tell me if I have any good stuff, or if it's just modern "junk". I tried looking through a price guide, but was overwhelmed by the amount of inserts and auto type cards and couldn't find some of these things. I found a few on Ebay, but not most of them. If someone could give me some approximate values and the scarcity level of this stuff, I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm thinking of just tossing all these out on Ebay at .99 auctions and see what happens.
There is a cool Mattingly numbered of 20, and a nice Killebrew auto card. There is also a binder and container filled with loose 2003-2005 cards. I saw Glauss RC's, Matsui RC's, what looked like a lot of Topps Reprint Fan Favorite cards and lots of loose stuff like that. Some Nascar stuff too, but I know even less about that!
Thanks for any help that is provided!!

I've got some info, but could use a bit more. I've still got some more binder to go through, so maybe I'll dig out some more goodies!

I don't have my Beckett annual at home, but the way the Mattingly is stamped, I am guessing that it is some sort of UD buyback or promotional item that was hand-numbered after the product was intially released. That said, you will probably find a Mattingly collector for it.
As for the rest of the stuff, the Matsui would go for a little bit as long as you open shipping up to Japan, but the rest isn't too desirable.
