Phillies manager Charlie Manuel had benched Jimmy Rollins three times this season. He had dropped him in the lineup twice. None of those events shook Rollins from the longest slump of his career. So Manuel took another step Thursday. He benched Rollins again. This time for at least two games.

The Ghost of Moonlight Graham —
Has there ever been a year that you can remember where so many All-Star caliber players have been benched? First it was David Ortiz, then it was Garrett Atkins, then Magglio Ordonez, and now it is Jimmy Rollins, and Milton Bradley. It has gotten to a point where I wouldn’t be surprised to see Albert Pujols benched. Well, I don’t think it will ever get that far, but I think you get my ...
