It says a lot about the St. Louis Cardinals that their 71-91 campaign in 2023 was so notable.
The Cardinals finished fifth in their division for the first time since 1988, when they competed in a six-team grouping. It marked the team's first losing season since 2007 and its first 90-loss year since 1990.
But the good news for baseball fans in St. Louis is that MLB betting odds expect a bounce-back performance by the Cardinals in 2024.
