PHILADELPHIA (AP) - The possibility that Jimmy Rollins won’t wear red pinstripes again hasn’t crossed his mind.

But those mutual feelings are no guarantee Rollins will be here next year.
Rollins made it clear Tuesday he wants a five-year deal. He doesn’t plan to give the Phillies a hometown discount, either.
