They're big names but not immortal. I mean, even when I think of all the old time guys from the 50s I really can't name too many, just a very small smattering of guys in the HOF or are noteworthy for some other reason. I couldn't tell you the Braves 3rd starter from 1966.
I don't know dude. He's the best defensive 3rd baseman of all time. Brooks and Schmidt aren't forgotten today, so why would Rolen be forgotten in the future? He was part of the MV3, and a great player.
