The St. Louis Cardinals won their division and advanced to the NL Championship Series in 2019, but only one of their players was tabbed for the inaugural All-MLB Team.
That was Jack Flaherty, and he was on the second team.
MLB had never had an official regular-season All-Star team before. The honorees were determined in voting by fans (50%) and a panel of experts (50%).
