Sat, 18 May 2013 11:14:37 -0700 Philadelphia Phillies SS Jimmy Rollins is 9-for-24 (.375) in his last six games.
Sun, 05 May 2013 09:59:01 -0700 Philadelphia Phillies SS Jimmy Rollins is not in the starting lineup against the Miami Marlins Sunday, May 5. INF/OF Freddy Galvis will bat first and play shortstop.
Sun, 21 Apr 2013 13:36:21 -0700 Philadelphia Phillies 1B Ryan Howard (groin) will return to the starting lineup against the St. Louis Cardinals Sunday, April 21, batting fourth. OF John Mayberry Jr. will start in right field and bat second, with SS Jimmy Rollins leading off. OF Ben Revere remains in the No. 7 spot in the batting order, with C Erik Kratz batting eighth.
Thu, 18 Apr 2013 16:27:27 -0700 Philadelphia Phillies OF Ben Revere has been dropped from the leadoff spot to seventh, SS Jimmy Rollins has moved into the top spot, and INF Freddy Galvis is batting second on Thursday, April 18, against the St. Louis Cardinals. Manager Charlie Manuel is hoping to jump-start an offense that has scored only nine runs in its last five games. "I want to see if I can relax him a little bit and get him going," Manuel said. "To me, our lineup is never set. It's not that he's not going to be back in the leadoff spot some time or hitting second. … I think he has been pressing too much."
Galvis is filling in for OF Domonic Brown (back) in left field. The idea of having switch hitters in the top two positions appealed to Manuel. Galvis (.333) entered play on Thursday as one of only two Phils with averages above .300. The other is 3B Michael Young (.346). Fantasy Tip: Fantasy owners should've expected the possibility of shakeups like this. Hopefully, the moves help to get Revere going. He should still opportunities to run -- as long as he gets on base -- since Manuel didn't drop to the eighth spot. It's not yet clear how serious Brown's injury is or whether the Phils would continue to play Galvin in left if Brown missed extended time. Delmon Young (ankle) may factor in here in the next couple of weeks.
Sun, 14 Apr 2013 08:27:39 -0700 Philadelphia Phillies SS Jimmy Rollins and C Erik Kratz are not in the starting lineup against the Miami Marlins Sunday, April 14. INF Freddy Galvis will start at shortstop and C Humberto Quintero will start behind the plate.

Mon, 01 Apr 2013 15:20:34 -0700 Philadelphia Phillies OF Ben Revere is in the leadoff spot for the team's opening day game Monday, April 1, instead of SS Jimmy Rollins. "We'll see how long I give it," manager Charlie Manuel said. "I come to the ballpark to win. I don't have to put a time on it or nothing. I can't tell you if it's going to be five days, 10 days, two days. We'll see. I just felt like that's what I wanted to see. That's how I wanted to put it together." Rollins is hitting behind Revere in the No. 2 hole.
Fri, 01 Mar 2013 09:57:23 -0800 Philadelphia Phillies manager Charlie Manuel used OF Ben Revere in the leadoff spot Thursday, Feb. 28, and Manuel liked Revere in the spot. SS Jimmy Rollins is the team's typical leadoff hitter, but Manuel will toy with the order this spring to see if Revere is better suited in the spot.
