50 plus steals for Rollins?
Jimmy Rollins has cracked 40 steals only twice, but running coach Davy Lopes told the Philadelphia Daily News he could break "50 without a problem." "You can't have fear. You have fear, you're dead," Lopes told the paper. "Certain basestealers have an attitude to the point of being cocky. The guys who, everybody in the ballpark knows they're stealing. The pitcher. The catcher. The manager. Even the fans."
If Rollins really does get in the 50-plus steals zone, he would be a steal in the third round of Rotisserie drafts this spring. Heck, he might even be in the lofty Jose Reyes zone. Rollins had a career year at age 27 and should be as good as anyone after Reyes or Miguel Tejada at the shortstop position this season. He's in the thick of his prime and plays in a great home hitter's park and is the catalyst for a strong lineup.
