Another great season of MLB baseball is in the books, and many former Cardinals found themselves finally making it it the top, while others had their seasons extended into the postseason for a chance to prove their worth for their clubs.

As of the final day of the regular season, seven Cardinals have found their way to 40-man MLB rosters: Nick Burdi, Adam Duvall, Adam Engel, Chad Green, Dean Kiekhefer, Matt Koch and Josh Rogers. An additional seven former members of the Cardinal Nine found their way up to Triple-A, with the potential for a promotion to The Show when 2019 rolls around.

While baseball has ended for most a select lucky few get to carry onto the postseason with their clubs. After being traded from the Cincinnati Reds, Atlanta Braves outfielder Adam Duvall continues to be a power at the plate, slugging .365 this season with 15 home runs. In a bit of a comeback story after being cut in the early goings of the season, southpaw Dean Kiekhefer gets another shot with the surging Oakland Athletics after the A’s picked up his contract in early September. Finally, right handed pitcher Chad Green stands out as one of the most dominant forces in the New York Yankees’ star studded pitching staff.
