Detroit Tigers outfielder Alex Presley is the perfect example of a player brought in as part of a minor transaction who ends up paying dividends.
The Tigers inked Presley to a minors last July, but he’s seen the bulk of his playing time with the team this year.
In said playing time, the veteran has been a pleasant surprise batting .333 with a .386 on-base percentage and a .430 slugging percentage.
Presley is also turning in a 122 wRC+, a .356 wOBA and a 1.2 BsR.
The left-handed hitting outfielder has also chipped in with 14 runs scored, 11 RBI, seven walks, six doubles, three stolen bases and a home run.
