The St. Louis Cardinals have experienced the type of success that may be rare in baseball. Regarded by many as the premier organization in Major League Baseball, they not only win, but accomplish that with an it appears bottomless pool of talent, one that may be mostly homegrown.

Despite years of phenomenal achievements, including going to the World Series in 2004 and again in 2006, the Cardinals reinvented themselves the usage of the “Cardinal Way,” a term that has come to represent many things to fans, media, and other organizations, from an ironclad code of conduct to the team’s state of the art use of statistic and analytics, and a farm system that has transformed baseball.

Baseball journalist Howard Megdal takes fans in the back of the scenes and off the field, interviewing dozens of key players throughout the Cardinals organization, including owner Bill DeWitt and the general manager John Mozeliak. Megdal reveals how the players are assessed and groomed the usage of an unrivaled player development system that has created a franchise that may be the envy of the baseball world.

In the spirit of Moneyball, The Cardinals Way tells an in-depth, fascinating story about a consistently good franchise, the business of sports within the twenty-first century and a team that has learned learn how to level the playing field, turning in season after successful season.
