Detroit Tigers fans will reportedly see yet another familiar face return to the organization next season.
With Alex Avila, Omar Infante and Alex Presley (reportedly) back in the fold, another name can be added to the list.
According to the Detroit Free Press’ George Sipple, Collin Balester is signing with the club.
Sipple tweeted on Friday afternoon, “Collin Balester coming back to #Tigers on minor league deal. He’s 30. Pitched for #Tigers in 2012. Pitched in Korea last season.”
A former fourth-round pick of the Montreal Expos back in 2004, Balester has seen action with three different franchises.
