Bell was great, but Rolen was in a class of his own.

I still remember Brooks in that 1970 series. He simply owned us. 16 GG AWards. IMO, he was the greatest defensive 3Bman I had the opportunity to witness, but Mike Schmidt is right there too.
And lets not forget guys like Brett, Boggs, and especially Chipper Jones.
Rolen was in the same class with these guys.
