The countdown for the Top 100 players in all of baseball is officially complete.
Last night, MLB released the final part of the list, with the Top 10 players having been revealed.
One team in particular finds themselves in an enviable position.
The St. Louis Cardinals were lucky enough to have a two-star finish in the Top 3 for the National League MVP.
Paul Goldschmidt won the award, with Nolan Arenado finishing third in the voting.
And as we enter the 2023 season, both Goldschmidt and Arenado are in the Top 10.
On Twitter, a Cardinals fan commented on the list and how lucky the team is to have two of the Top 10 players in all of baseball.
Imagine having not one, but TWO top 10 players on your team. You love to see it… #STLCards https://t.co/jlmoHEINyY

If you’re a Cardinals fan, you’ll love to see it.
The Cardinals were largely carried last season by the success of Goldschmidt and Arenado.
This season, they’ll rely heavily on the power of these two stars yet again.
Though Albert Pujols and Yadier Molina are gone, St. Louis is in a good position to capture their second straight NL Central crown and their third in the last five years.
Adding Willson Contreras to an already stacked lineup is simply the icing on the cake for St. Louis.
Goldschmidt hit for a .317 average last season and crushed 35 home runs on his way to earning the MVP Award.
Arenado hit .293 and popped 30 home runs in 2022.
The Cardinals will have both sluggers in their lineup through at least the 2024 season.
The two sluggers will look to repeat their dominance from a season ago and help guide the Cardinals back to the postseason.
