Attached is an image of Flint Rhem of the St. Louis Cardinals from his rookie year of 1924.

Rhem was a right handed pitcher who won over 100 games in his Major League career most notably during his time with the Cardinals. He made his debut in September and completed all 3 games that he started appearing in a total of 6 games. In 1925 he pitched 170 innings including 24 starts. 1926 can be judged as his career year posting a 20-7 record and finishing 8th in MVP voting. He posted what also turned out to be a career best ERA of 3.21. 20 wins shared the National League lead with Pete Donohue of the Reds and the Pirate tandem of Lee Meadows and Ray Kremer. Rhem also set career bests in many other pitching categories in 1926 including 34 starts, 258 innings, 20 complete games, and 72 strikeouts. In 1927 with his record dropping to 10-12 he set a career high with 2 shutouts. In 1928 he posted a winning record of 11-8 from his 22 starts. He was absent in 1929 but posted a similar record of 12-8 in 1930. In 1931 he equalled his career high figures in both strikeouts and shutouts finishing with a 11-10 won loss record. In early June 1932 he was sold to the Philadelphia Phillies and posted an overall season record of 15-9. 1933 resulted in a significant decline as his ERA climbed to over 6.50 and his record dropped to 5-14. 1934 Rhem split his time between the Cardinals and the Boston Braves winning 8 of his 9 victories with the Braves. In 1935 with the Braves, however, none of his 5 decisions was in the win column. He finished his Major League career back with the Cardinals in 1936 starting 4 of his 10 games.

Rhem finished his career with a winning record of 105-97 with a 4.20 ERA. He finished 91 of his 230 starts.
