Rollins was 3-for-7 with two runs scored in Monday's 14-inning win over the Giants.
Rollins came into the game in a 1-for-19 skid, though you could argue that the .221/.276/.360 hitting shortstop has been in a skid all season. With expanded rosters, Corey Seager could get the call and steal a little playing time from the veteran, but the Dodgers still appear to be committed to Rollins as their shortstop.

Rollins went 2-for-4 with a double and two runs scored in a 5-3 win over the Reds on Friday.
Rollins was recently moved up to the leadoff spot and his numbers have risen as well. Over the last nine games, Rollins has 11 hits including four doubles and six runs scored. Even though his .224 average is lacking, his counting stats will always keep him relevant in standard mixed leagues, especially out of the leadoff spot.
Wed Aug 12 201518:48Rollins out of lineup on Wednesday against Nationals
Rollins is out of the lineup on Wednesday against the Nationals.
Rollins will have the day off against Jordan Zimmerman, as the shortstop is batting just 8-for-35 (.229 AVG) against Zimmerman this season. Carl Crawford will play left field and bat in the lead-off spot while Enrique Hernandez will get the start at shortstop.

Rollins was 3-for-4 with a walk, a run, two RBI, and a stolen base in a losing cause against the Pirates on Friday night.
After what could be considered a lost half-season, Rollins has perked up a bit since the All-Star break and now has 35 RBI and a gradually improving .223 average to go with nine steals. With Joc Pederson's struggles he has moved into the leadoff spot which could enhance his value somewhat if he can continue to get on base.
Sat Jul 25 201523:11Rollins 2-3 with solo homer in Saturday's loss to Mets
Rollins went 2-for-3 with a solo homer in Saturday's loss to the Mets.
Since suffering his longest slump of the season and missing a start July 21, Rollins has home runs in three straight games for the first time since June 2012. He's piled up six hits in his last four games and has four RBI since the All-Star break. He's certainly not the All-Star he used to be, but Rollins has found a little momentum.
Tue Jul 21 201516:02Rollins out of lineup Tuesday against Braves
Rollins is out of the lineup Tuesday against the Braves.
Kike Hernandez is starting. Rollins is in a season-long slump, including being 0 for his last 18.
Sun Jul 5 201513:54Rollins out of lineup Sunday against Mets
Rollins is out of the lineup Sunday against the Mets.
Rollins has made 11 straight starts at shortstop, but will rest in favor of Enrique Hernandez, who will also bat leadoff in the afternoon contest. The struggle continues for Rollins, who is hitless in his last two games and batting just .208 on the season.

Rollins has a mini five-game hit streak, but he's still batting a paltry .228/.253/.315 in the month of June.
Meanwhile, Corey Seager has hit in six straight (.348 BA, 2 HR) for Triple-A Oklahoma. There have been no rumblings that a Seager promotion is coming any time soon however.
Mon Jun 22 201516:25Rollins not in lineup Monday against Cubs
Rollins is not in the lineup Monday against the Cubs, David Vassegh of Dodger Talk reports.
Rollins will get the day off after starting each of the last four games at shortstop. In his place Monday will be Enrique Hernandez, who is 11-for-37 with three RBI and three extra-base hits in the month of June.
Sun Jun 21 201523:56Rollins will not be in lineup for Monday's game against Cubs
Rollins will not be in the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs, True Blue LA's Eric Stephen reports.
Rollins is just getting a planned day off during an especially busy part of the schedule. He's still having a poor season, but he has five hits (two doubles) in his last eight at-bats.
Wed Jun 17 201519:11Rollins not in lineup for Wednesday's game against Rangers
Rollins is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rangers.
An 0-for-3 showing in Tuesday's game brought Rollins' average for the season back below the Mendoza Line (.198). The 36-year-old will head to the bench Wednesday as Enrique Hernandez steps in at short, but his primary role appears safe for now with the Dodgers insisting that they are not on the verge of promoting top prospect Corey Seager.
Tue Jun 9 201518:05Rollins not in lineup Tuesday against Diamondbacks
Rollins is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Diamondbacks.
Rollins will get the night off with left-hander Robbie Ray on the hill for Arizona. Enrique Hernandez will take over at shortstop and bat ninth.
Tue Jun 9 201502:08Rollins hit seventh home run in Monday's win over Diamondbacks, ...
Rollins hit his seventh home run in Monday's win over the Diamondbacks, a three-run shot off Rubby De La Rosa.
The home run was Rollins's only hit of the game. Rollins's average sits at a brutal .208 and even though the power is there with seven home runs and eight doubles this year, he hasn't been able to find a rhythm this season.
Tue Jun 2 201512:23Rollins not in lineup for first game of Tuesday's doubleheader a...
Rollins is not in the lineup for the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Rockies, David Vassegh of Dodger Talk reports.
Rollins will rest for Game 1 as the Dodgers go with Enrique Hernandez at shortstop. Rollins, who is hit less in his last seven at-bats, may return to the lineup for the nightcap.
Sat May 30 201516:04Rollins moved all way down to eighth in Dodgers' lineup Saturday
Rollins was moved all the way down to eighth in the Dodgers' lineup Saturday.
This move comes while Rollins is in the midst of his hottest stretch at the plate of the season. He has a six-game hitting streak going and has risen his average from .192 to .210 over the past week. The move may not be permanent, but Justin Turner will occupy the two hole in the Dodgers' lineup, at least on Saturday.
Sat May 30 201512:43Rollins 2-4 with double in 3-0 loss to Cardinals on Friday
Rollins went 2-for-4 with a double in a 3-0 loss to the Cardinals on Friday.
Rollins and Justin Turner were the only Dodgers hitters who showed up on Friday; as a result, the team got shut out on the road for the fourth straight time. He started slow, but Rollins has hit safely in six straight games now, raising his average from .192 to .210. He's certainly not the fantasy asset he once was, but Rollins still offers some speed and pop at the thin shortstop position.
Mon May 25 201523:17Rollins hit one of three eighth-inning Dodgers homers in Monday'...
Rollins hit one of three eighth-inning Dodgers homers in Monday's 6-3 defeat of the Braves.
Rollins followed up blasts by Andre Ethier and Alex Guerrero to score his second run of the game. The 36-year-old was able to raise his batting average back above .200 with a 2-for-4 showing Sunday, but he's still not pulling his weight as the No. 2 hitter in a powerful lineup. With many deserving candidates for a move up in the batting order, manager Don Mattingly may need to consider dropping Rollins to a bottom-third spot in an effort to get more at-bats for the superior hitters in his lineup.
Sun May 24 201511:02Rollins 1-4 with two stolen bases in 2-0 win against Padres on S...
Rollins went 1-for-4 with two stolen bases in a 2-0 win against the Padres on Saturday.
Rollins hit a single in the first inning and proceeded to steal second and third, giving him five steals on the year. The veteran is still batting below the Mendoza Line, but is always a candidate for a 20-20 season and should provide fantasy owners with counting stats all season long -- if he can lift his average enough to stay in the lineup every day.
Thu May 21 201512:45Rollins out of lineup Thursday
Rollins is out of the lineup Thursday, Dodgers reporter Alanna Rizzo reports.
He will get a rare day off as his bat seems to have cooled after a four-hit game last week. Enrique Hernandez will get the start at shortstop Thursday.
Sat May 16 201510:43Rollins exploded for season-high four hits in Friday's 6-4 win o...
Rollins exploded for a season-high four hits in Friday's 6-4 win over the Rockies. He was a triple short of the cycle and drove in two runs and scored twice.
It's only the fifth multi-hit game to date for Rollins, whose presence in the second spot of a stacked Dodgers lineup probably has more to do with his reputation rather than his production at some point. Rollins is only batting .198 with a .279 on-base percentage, but thanks to the upgrade in talent around him compared to his latter years with the Phillies, he's still been a decent source of counting stats. He's accumulated four homers, 13 RBI, 19 runs, and three stolen bases over 147 plate appearances.
