We still need one more good pitcher and another bullpen arm. I like the moves so far, but they need to do more and they will.

Dodgers fans, I hate to break the news to you, but Jimmy Rollins is NOT a strong leadoff hitter, especially now at age 36. He should be hitting 7h or 8th.

We all knew that, he's a 1 and done player with the Dodgers like Shane Victorino. I find it comical that you want to focus on him, a player that the Dodgers' got cheaply and never planned to have more than 1 year. Continue shaking your fist at the sky.

Yeah, I've never liked Rollins as a leadoff hitter, but it's really not that big of a deal.

I wasn't happy after Gordon was traded and Rollins was brought in initially as well, Lasportzphan can attest to that, but I believe the team has improved overall. You can't really look at only 1 move the Dodgers' made in the offseason, you have to look at the big picture. The future is looking bright in LA, the Dodgers finally have a front office that knows what it's doing.

Rollins is a notorious slow starter, so it's not surprising. And we don't really have a great option to leadoff at this point.

Dodgers are averaging 5.9 runs per game at home so Rollins' slump isn't too troubling. His defense and leadership will keep him in the lineup.

A couple hits last night and he finds his way to the bench.
