The Phillies have reached out to Jimmy Rollins' agent multiple times over the past couple of days. "Jimmy knows we'd like to bring him back," said Phillies GM Ruben Amaro Jr. "We've been playing phone tag a little bit with [agent Scott Boras] over the last several days." The Phils are expected to make an offer to Rollins before the end of their exclusive negotiating period. But he's likely to test the market anyway.
