Rollins affected by 2010 injuries: The Philadelphia News reports Phillies SS Jimmy Rollins said the calf strains he suffered in 2010 had a lingering impact on the way he played the game in 2011. "You play the rest of the season not to get hurt," he said. "And it's less about baseball than, is it going to happen again? It's less about stealing a bag. It's about, if I try to steal a bag, will I get hurt? Or, if I try to stretch a single into a double, is it going to happen again?" (Updated 01/30/2012)

Fantasy Analysis
Rollins stayed healthy for the most part in 2011, but he did battle a groin injury late in the season. He also had a minor procedure done on his wrist in early December, but it isn't supposed to sideline Rollins at the start of spring training. Rollins finished with a .268 average, 16 homers, 22 doubles, 30 steals and 63 RBI in 2011. Not his greatest numbers, but still productive for a then 32-year-old shortstop. Rollins remains a No. 1 Fantasy SS on Draft Day. (Updated 01/30/2012).

Jimmy Rollins' issues last year were the same as they've been for the last few years. He didn't hit for a particularly high batting average, and he had trouble staying on the field, missing a few weeks with a groin injury late in the season. But for the first time in four seasons, his percentages took a turn for the better. His batting average, on-base percentage and OPS were all the highest they've been since 2008, marking the first time in three seasons that they didn't decline. And with 16 homers and 30 steals, he proved he's still an elite contributor at the shortstop position. Though Rollins' best years are behind him at age 33, the Phillies clearly think he'll be able to keep it going a little longer, outbidding several teams to retain his services this offseason. Keep in mind, though, he's only two years removed from an 88-game season. Equipped with a new three-year deal, he might have a harder time overcoming those aches and pains that pop up over the course of a season. He is 33, after all. Rollins' upside makes him a top-five option at a weak position, but he's still risky enough that you wouldn't want to draft him earlier than Round 4 or 5 in standard mixed leagues. (Updated 1/5/12)
