The St. Louis Cardinals are one of the most decorated franchises in baseball history. Their all-time 25-man roster also contains some of the greatest names in the sport.

The St. Louis Cardinals have a long history dating back to the 1870s. The Cardinals have won 11 World Series championships, second to the New York Yankees (27). They have also won 19 National League pennants and 13 division titles. Before the modern era of the World Series Championship, the St. Louis franchise won four league championships.

Many individuals within the Cardinals organization have impacted baseball throughout history as well. Rogers Hornsby, Dizzy Dean, Stan Musial, Bob Gibson, Whitey Herzog, Mark McGwire, and many others have all made a permanent mark on the history of the game. Cardinals players have won 20 league MVPs, four Triple Crowns, and three Cy Young Awards.

This incredibly storied franchise has been around for over 100 years. In that time, they have successfully managed to produce some of the best ballplayers to ever live. They have 11 Baseball Hall of Fame inductees including:

  • Lou Brock

  • Whitey Herzog
  • Rogers Hornsby
  • Joe Medwick
