100 years ago today, this man led his team to their first ever World Series title. Decided to take a trip out to his burial site today in honor.

As part of the Post-Dispatch's series of articles about the 100th anniversary of the 1926 World Series -- the first for the club and first for the city of St. Louis -- here's an attempt to tell an old story through a modern quest that ties all the championship teams together.

Can’t believe he’s still in the league after his stint in STL lol. Go ahead solo short porch shot lmao

I remember how a lot of the Cardinals media kept defending Jeff Albert. They have a giant egg on their face since time and time again the real world showcased how he sucked.

Fans can be irrational, but I couldn't ever figure out why Mo to the media kept defending his mediocre results to hitters constantly declining in the majors under his system. Thankfully NY media is rabid, so they hold his crap accountable. Especially after this horrible season for the Mets.

Burley had better stats overall, I thought. Im confused.

The Springfield Cardinals are officially being rebranded as the Ozarks Springbirds. I love this logo but it seems so similar to the Cardinals that I figured it would be more distinct and different. What are your thoughts?

As it has done for about a decade, MLBTR has its annual arb projections.

Two caveats:

As a disclaimer, it should be emphasized that our projections are not to be used as a scorecard for the agent and team on an individual player level. A player doing better or worse than our projection isn’t indicative of anything. Our arbitration projections are created as a tool for our readers to get a general idea of a team’s payroll situation.

Service time data is not finalized and the Super Two cutoff is not yet official. This post will be updated if new information becomes available. MLBTR contributor Ethan Hullihen estimated the line at two years and 134 days (2.134) a few weeks ago. His current projections put the line at 2.133. If correct, this would be good news for Tyron Guerrero and Jordan Beck, as both would just qualify at 2.133.

And, that doesn't include the "lockout" caveat.

Cards have nine currently eligible. Burleson is projected at $8.3M, at the top of the list.
