PEORIA, IL – After being affiliated with the Quad Cities River Bandits for eight years, the St. Louis Cardinals will now be affiliated with thePeoria Chiefs.
The Chiefs were a Cardinals affiliate from 1995 to 2004 making the playoffs four times and winning their lone Midwest League Championship in 2002.
"We are extremely pleased to have a new four-year affiliation in place with the Chiefs and the Peoria community," said Cardinals' Senior Vice President/General Manager John Mozeliak. "We know how Peoria and Central Illinois represent a big part of what "Cardinals Nation" is all about and that the Chiefs run a first-class operation that will only enhance our player development efforts."
"We are excited to be returning to Peoria," stated Cardinals' Farm Director John Vuch. "The Midwest League has tremendous tradition and we are pleased to remain part of it."
During their eight-year run in Quad Cities, the Cardinals Midwest League teams posted an overall record of 587-515, for a .533 winning percentage. They made the playoffs five times (2005, 2006, 2007, 2010 & 2011) and won the MWL Championship in 2011.
In the period from 2005-2012, only West Michigan made the playoffs more (6) or won more regular season games (603) than Quad Cities. The Chiefs meanwhile were 549-559 as a Cubs affiliate and made the playoffs just twice in 2006 and 2009, never winning a playoff series in the eight years with Chicago.
