Jimmy Rollins

The White Sox have designated Jimmy Rollins for assignment. The White Sox in turn called up shortstop Tim Anderson from Triple-A Charlotte to take Rollins place.

Fantasy Impact

Rollins had already seen his at-bats drop drastically. He was moved down in the order and was sharing time with Tyler Saladino. Tim Anderson is a guy to keep an eye on. He was a 2013 first-round pick and the White Sox' top prospect.

Jimmy Rollins is not in Tuesday's lineup against the Indians. Tyler Saladino will start in Rollins' place at shortstop.

Fantasy Impact

Just a rest day for Rollins on Tuesday. You probably have better options than Rollins in a mixed league anyway, but to the extent you're starting him because you're desperate for runs or steals, make sure he's on your bench today.

Jimmy Rollins went 0-for-3 on Sunday as the White Sox beat the Royals 3-2. Rollins reached base once by taking a walk in the first inning.

Fantasy Impact

Rollins is not your prototypical second hitter. He is only hitting .231 with a .293 OBP. The OBP isn't awful, but if the White Sox are going to push for a pennant they will need better production from the two-hole. Rollins does little for fantasy too. His only value is runs scored as he now has 20 on the season. He can be a plug-in punt option in DFS tournaments, but that about does it for the veteran shortstop.

Jimmy Rollins will get the day off on Wednesday against the Rangers. Tyler Saladino will replace him at SS.

Fantasy Impact

People are not depending on Rollins for fantasy production, but DFS wise he is always a value play. Today, Saladino will take his place, Rollins should be back out there the next time the White Sox take the field.

Rollins went 1-for-6 with a single and an RBI as the White Sox won their fourth straight.

Fantasy Impact

Rollins is only hitting .226 this season. He's not a top shortstop and should be used only when the split is favorable.
