Scott Rolen inducted into Hall of Fame

Hall of Fame voting has come to a close, and just one player made the cut — barely.

The lone player of the 2023 BBWAA Hall of Fame class is none other than third baseman Scott Rolen (76.3% of votes, needed at least 75%), who played for the Phillies (1996-2002), Cardinals (2002-07), Reds (2008-09), and Blue Jays (2009-12) during his excellent, 17-year MLB career.

Rolen posted a .281/.364/.490 slash line, resulting in a 122 wRC+. In addition to his great bat, Rolen provided strong defense at third base.
