2010 Look Back: Jimmy Rollins

My Fellow Phans,

After a long delay, I come to you with our next Phillies Look Back. For this edition, we will complete our look around the Phillies’ four infielders. Our 4th Look Back is at Jimmy Rollins.  I have to admit that there is not much to write about positively for Rollins from this previous season. So, I apologize for the shortness of this look back.

Jimmy Rollins: 2010 stats: .243 AVG 8 HR 41 RBI (.206 AVG 0 HR 4 RBI)

Recap: 

Jimmy had a tough season. He started off at a blazing pace and then was slammed back to Earth with a pair of devastating injuries.  After he returned, he was never close to the same Rollins that we all know and love.

I really can’t put any positives to his season. He wasn’t healthy, performing, or even fielding to the same level that we know all he is capable of. Hopefully he can put this season behind him and start fresh next year.

Looking Ahead: 

Here is hoping the Rollins can put this season behind him and start anew. He will be back next year with the Phillies and who knows what will happen in the future. If Rollins is fully healthy, then I expect a big turnaround for him next season.

Grade: C-

I won’t give a failing grade to any player, but Rollins’ season was pretty bad. It could have been a lot better.

Until we meet again Phillies fans; Happy Readings and Go Phillies!
