Jimmy Rollins reiterated Sunday that he has no plans to waive his no-trade rights anytime soon.
Rollins' name has again popped up in trade rumors, this time involving the Tigers in the wake of the Jose Iglesias injury. However, as a 10-and-5 player, he would have to approve any deal. The shortstop is 60 hits shy of overtaking Mike Schmidt as the Phillies' all-time leader, something that's important to him. "There's only 30 guys that are their team's leader in hits," Rollins said. "It's a pretty high honor." Rollins is owed $11 million this season and will have his $11 million option for next year vest if he reaches 434 plate appearances.
