Fanball reports:
| Quote: | Feb 22 Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said he would like shortstop Jimmy Rollins to steal more bases this season, and set 60-75 as a goal, PhillyBurbs.com reports. Rollins has also been quoted as setting a goal of scoring 150 runs this season.
Views: Well why not just shoot for Rickey Henderson's 130 stolen bases in 1982 or Babe Ruth's 177 runs in 1921? Maybe he should buy 70 pairs of batting gloves and nail them to his bedroom wall like Willie Mays Hayes for each stolen base this season. Rollins career high for stolen bases stands at 46, so 60-75 would be a significant jump. Needless to say, we are skeptical. |
encouraging news for people interested in Rollins, in any case. _________________ i'm a worm, i can't tell my ass from my head. |
