Rollins missed 29 games with a strained right calf before rejoining the lineup Monday. He returned to his customary leadoff spot Friday, but left in the sixth inning after feeling a pop while running to first base on a single.

An MRI exam Saturday revealed a strain, according to Philadelphia general manager Ruben Amaro.

In 12 games, the speedy Rollins is batting .341 with two homers and seven RBIs. He is eligible to come off the disabled list on June 6.

Juan Castro replaced Rollins in the lineup Saturday night, and the Phillies recalled shortstop Wilson Valdez from Triple-A Lehigh Valley.
