As noted below, he didn't have a great experience for most of his time in Philly (he's not the only one, e.g. Dick Allen). The fanbase in StL loves Rolen, but, IMO, wouldn't react negatively if he decided to either show a blank hat or a Philly hat. He's a member of the Cardinals HOF. Don't think Philly recognizes him much as a key part of their history.
