The Royals added depth to their outfield corps on Wednesday with the signing of Tyler Collins to a minor-league contract.
As part of his deal with the Royals, Collins was invited to spring training, which starts next month in Surprise, Ariz.
Collins, who spent parts of four seasons with the Tigers, hit .235 with a .333 slugging percentage, 14 home runs and 58 RBIs in 183 games from 2014-17. Unfortunately for Collins, he may be best known for making an obscene gesture to fans at Comerica Park after he and teammate Justin Upton lost track of a flyball during a game against the A’s in April 2016.
