Zack Collins has had a very strong spring training for the Chicago White Sox as he tries to make the 2020 Opening Day roster.
Collins, 25, has appeared in 11 of the team’s spring training games so far and is hitting .313/.542/.750 (1.292 OPS) with one double, two home runs, and five RBI.
Defense was a concern for the backstop in 2019 but, as detailed by Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times, Collins has improved at the position.
“He’s maturing first and foremost,” manager Rick Renteria said.
