The Palm Beach Cardinals had one player named to the Florida State League end of the year All-Star team, Matt Pearce, as he was one of the pitchers named to the team. Pearce had a great year for the Cardinals as he was the backbone of the pitching rotation this season.

Pearce ended up going 8-8 in twenty starts this season posting a 2.37 ERA during his time in the FSL before being called up to the Double A, Springfield Cardinals. His 2.37 ERA put him third in the league in that category. He also led the league in complete games thrown with four on the season.
