In the past, we’ve looked at the all time leaders in both offensive and defensive categories for all 30 teams. This offseason, we will take our first ever look at those leaders against all 30 clubs. We continue today with the St. Louis Cardinals.
The Cardinals began life in 1891, joining the National League the following year after the dissolution of the old American Association. They took on the Cardinal name starting in 1900. I’ve seen them play 33 times at 3 different stadiums, including the 2015 NLDS and, most recently, last May at Guaranteed Rate Field.
