Detroit Tigers: Breaking Down Tyler Collins’ Notable Career Splits

Detroit Tigers outfielder Tyler Collins is one of a handful of players in contention for the team’s center field job in Spring Training.

Other candidates include the recently-acquired Mikie Mahtook, top prospect JaCoby Jones and the returning Anthony Gose.

Elsewhere, non-roster invitees Alex Presley, Juan Perez, Jason Krizan and Mike Gerber could play a role as camp goes on.

However, Collins is one of the front runners for the job at this point.

The former sixth-round pick has plenty of experience with the Tigers, having appeared in 134 games with the club over the last three seasons.
