It’s no mystery the Detroit Tigers have a glut of outfielders with J.D. Martinez, Justin Upton, Anthony Gose, Cameron Maybin, and lately Steven Moya. If Tyler Collins can put up good numbers off of the bench, he could still play a key role during the 2016 season.
Tyler Collins has seen limited playing time with the Tigers in 2014 and 2015. In 2015 he hit .266 with 4 home runs with 25 RBI’s in 192 at bats. He got some extensive playing time in left field in 2015 after Yoenis Cespedes was traded at the deadline.
