Cardinals Are MLB's Smartest Organization

The St. Louis Cardinals are 47-27, atop the National League Central and well on their way to another postseason appearance. Should the Redbirds make it to the playoffs, it would be their third appearance in a row and their 10th since the turn of the millennium, an impressive feat exceeded by only the New York Yankees. Impressively, the Cardinals have finished below .500 only once in the 21st century. Although previous teams included Albert Pujols, arguably the greatest player of his generation, the Cardinals of more recent vintage succeeded without any true superstar players.
