Two Cardinals on Jayson Stark's All-21st Century All-Star Lineup

I'm tempted to post the link to the story in The Athletic, but I'll get suspended again. Let's just say there's a lot of love --- and future first-ballot Hall of Fame votes --- for two beloved former Cardinals among the eight starters. Google "Jayson Stark, all-21st century team"; note the depth and breadth of talent in RF alone; and keep me from getting whacked again.

Pujols and Molina?

Slam Dunk on Albert at 1st base, no need to even debate.

Yadi at Catcher

I ran this by a scout who once played in the big leagues. He didn’t even hesitate.

“It’s Yadi,” he said. “It’s got to be Yadi. End of story. I don’t care about the numbers. Yadi has all the nuanced stuff you can’t measure. Go look at all those Cardinals pitching staffs that got better when he was behind the plate. And the second he left, they have not been the same. So it’s Yadi. It’s got to be Yadi.”

Why would you get rung up for posting a link to a story?
