Rollins went 3-for-5 with a triple and two runs in Friday's loss to Colorado.
Rollins, like Ponce de Len before him, is finding out that there is no such thing as a Fountain of Youth. The 36-year-old shortstop is set to mark career lows in batting average, on-base percentage and steals. It speaks to the lack of depth in the league at shortstop that Rollins still ranks among the top 11 at the position in doubles, homers and runs. Whether or not he belongs in your lineup is relative to your other options or lack there of.

Rollins (finger) is back in the lineup Wednesday against the Diamondbacks, manning shortstop and batting eighth.
Justin Turner's knee injury has temporarily solved the team's Rollins-Corey Seager dilemma, as Seager can just shift over to third base for now and allow Rollins to return to short. This marks Rollins' first start since Sept. 6 -- he suffered a couple setbacks as he tried to work his way back from a jammed finger.

Rollins (finger) is temporarily shut down after his finger continued to bother him while trying to throw Wednesday, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.
The pain in Rollins' index finger resurfaced after he made 12 throws Wednesday. According to Gurnick, Rollins was able to swing a biat without pain and could be available as a pinch-runner Wednesday. However, it's doubtful that he'll be able to return to the field for Friday's contest.
Wed Sep 16 201518:32Rollins (finger) remains out of lineup Wednesday against Rockies
Rollins (finger) remains out of the lineup Wednesday against the Rockies.
Corey Seager will start again at shortstop, and with Rollins still unable to take part in batting practice or fielding drills as of Monday, a return following Thursday's off day for the veteran is looking questionable. Rollins was able to pinch-run Tuesday night, but he hasn't logged an at-bat in 10 days now.

Rollins (finger) remains out of the lineup Tuesday against the Rockies.
Manager Don Mattingly had suggested this would be the case, but Rollins will indeed sit for an eighth straight game due to a finger injury. The skipper said over the weekend that he planned on playing Rollins over Corey Seager once Rollins was 100 percent, but he changed his tone a bit after Monday's game, telling ESPN Los Angeles, "Right now, I take care of today. I don't have to look forward."

Rollins (finger) is still unable to take part in fielding drills or batting practice, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.
Rollins was hoping to test his index finger during batting practice Monday but apparently his condition wasn't well enough for that to happen. He's still on tap to be a starter upon his return, but his inability to practice suggests he may need a couple more days of recovery time.

Rollins (hand) will apparently return as the starting shortstop ahead of rookie Corey Seager once Rollins is 100%, the Los Angeles Times reports.
Rollins will sit again on Monday, but he's yet to be Wally Pipp to Seager's Lou Gehrig, at least right now. Still, expect Rollins to sit at least a couple times a week the rest of the way.
Sun Sep 13 201514:40Rollins (hand) also won't start Monday's game
Rollins (hand), who was held out of the lineup Sunday, also won't start Monday's game, Dylan Hernandez of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Sun Sep 13 201514:09Rollins (hand) out of lineup Sunday against Diamondbacks
Rollins (hand) is out of the lineup Sunday against the Diamondbacks.
Rollins has been able to come off the bench in both of the last two games, but the Dodgers are in no rush to get him back in the lineup with hotshot rookie Corey Seager lighting it up offensively. The 36-year-old Rollins is holding down a horrendous .279 on-base percentage this season, so it may be time for the playoff-bound Dodgers to pull the plug on the veteran and let Seager see regular action.

Manager Don Mattingly said Rollins (hand) "kind of woke up sore [Thursday] from the work he'd done" on Wednesday, MLB.com reports.
The skipper had previously expressed confidence that Rollins would be able to return Friday, but with the shortstop not responding especially well to his Wednesday workout, the team opted to hold him out for a fourth straight game. Mattingly would not use the word "setback" to describe Rollins' soreness, but Rollins did not take batting practice Friday and his status for the remainder of this weekend's series is up in the air.

Fri Sep 4 201511:50Rollins held out of lineup in Thursday's game against Padres
Rollins was held out of the lineup in Thursday's game against the Padres.
Rollins could be at risk of losing out on an everyday role after the Dodgers called up top prospect Corey Seager on Thursday, giving him the start at shortstop. It was a nice debut for Seager, who went 2-for-4 with a pair of RBI and runs scored, and with the Dodgers struggling to generate offense of late, manager Don Mattingly could consider the youngster a better option than the veteran Rollins, who has largely struggled this season. Though he has shown improved performance in the second half, Rollins is slashing a meager .222/.276/.358 with only a 10-for-17 success rate on stolen-base attempts.
