Before the St. Louis Cardinals were named the Cardinals, they were the first known version of the Browns, and one of their best Pitchers in the mid-1890s was Theodore Breitenstein.  

A 15-year veteran of the Majors, Jake Daubert played for two different teams in his Major League career, the Brooklyn Superbas/Robins and the Cincinnati Reds.

Playing at First Base, Daubert was a starter as a rookie in 1910.  After a promising rookie year, Daubert would bat .300 ten times, including two Batting Titles (Robin, 1913 & 1914), and won the MVP award in the latter year.  Brooklyn traded Daubert to Cincinnati in 1919, where he helped the Reds win the World Series during the infamous "Black Sox Scandal."

Daubert would have 2,336 Hits with a lifetime Batting Average of .303.

From rural Oklahoma, Harry Brecheen took a while to make his mark in the Majors.

At age 25, Brecheen had a cup of coffee with the St. Louis Cardinals in 1940m, but he wasn't able to make his mark with that opportunity.  The southpaw would, however, emerge in 1943, and while the Majors were depleted due to World War II, he made the most of this circumstance. 

Brecheen came of age in 1944, winning 16 Games against 5 Losses, and helping the Redbirds win the National League Pennant.  The Oklahoman won a Game in that year’s World Series, which would see St. Louis defeat the crosstown Browns for the Title.  Brecheen had an even better regular season in 1944, with a 2.52 ERA (3^rd in the NL) and a sparkling winning percentage of .789 (15-4).

Brecheen won 15 Games again in 1946 (albeit against 15 losses), though he sported an even better ERA of 2.24.  That year, the Cardinals returned to the World Series, and Brecheen was astounding, winning all three starts and allowing only one run in 20 Innings.  St. Louis won the World Series (beating Boston), and if there had been a World Series MVP in '46, it would have been offered to Brecheen on a silver platter.

1946 was the last World Series win for Brecheen, but his best regular seasons were still ahead of him.  In 1947 and 1948, he was an All-Star, with his best season coming in the latter, where he led the NL in ERA (2.24). Strikeouts (149), ERA+ (182), WHIP (1.037), and SO/BB (3.04).  Brecheen was fifth in MVP voting that season, his highest vote tally.

Declining after 1949, he played with the Cardinals until 1952, playing one last year in the Majors with the St. Louis Browns.  Overall, Brecheen had a record of 133-92.

Many baseball historians have painted Wally Schang as one of the better offensive Catchers of the deadball era.  In terms of his World Series Rings, you can argue that he is one of the most successful.

Schang won his first World Series as a rookie with the Philadelphia Athletics in 1913, and he would play there for the first five years of his career.  The Athletics dealt Schang to the Red Sox in 1918, where again, he was a World Series Champion in his first year with a Major League Team.  He batted over .300 for the BoSox in 1919 and 1920, but the Red Sox were in the middle of dismantling their team, and he was traded to the New York Yankees in 1921, where he again had two more .300 seasons, the second of which would see him win a World Series in 1922.  

Schang later played for the St. Louis Browns and the Detroit Tigers, and, in addition to his excellent offense, he was considered a very good defensive player.  He would also have five seasons in which he received an MVP vote, and he secured a fourth ring in 1930 as a reserve with the Athletics. 

While his 1,506 career Hits may not seem like a lot, for a Catcher of his time, it was a lot.  Throw in the lifetime Batting Averages of .284 and OBP of .393, and you have a special player.
