I hope Rolen goes in as a Cardinal, but I could see the HOF leaving it blank.

The Hall gets final say. Seems like someone (Boggs?) was going to get paid to have a Devil Rays cap and the Hall out a stop to it.ghostrunner wrote: ↑January 24 23, 6:14 pmSaid over in the other thread I could see him preferring blank. Might depend how over the TLR stuff he is (seems like it) and how much he liked Cincy (seems like he did). I forget - is it the HOF that gets final say?
Correction: it was alleged that Boggs contract with Tampa paid him to go in with the Devil Ray cap so the Hall reexamined their policy and they now have final say. Boggs we t I with a Red Sox cap.

Does he get put up on the left field wall? Some Cardinal HoF'ers aren't. Have no idea what criteria they use.

I hope Cardinals. But, maybe Reds or Phillies.
He's worn a few hats in his time.

The Hall gets to pick the hat but the player still gets an option to go with a blank hat.Spider John wrote: ↑January 24 23, 6:47 pmThe Hall gets final say.

Isn’t that reserved for national HOFers?Joe Shlabotnik wrote: ↑January 24 23, 6:54 pmDoes he get put up on the left field wall? Some Cardinal HoF'ers aren't. Have no idea what criteria they use.
He will be added. Number probably retired too. Ken Boyer isn’t even close to the level Rolen is and I would probably say that for Rolen’s Cardinal years only.

Re: Scott Rolen gets into Hall of Fame
There's only been 18 3rd basemen to make the hall of fame. That's wild.
