Major League Baseball suspends Zach Collier of the Philadelphia Phillies
Major League Baseball has suspended 22-year old lefty swinging outfielder Zach Collier for 50 games for testing positive for amphetamines. Collier played in 112 games in A-ball this year and he was 106 for 416 (.255 avg, .676 OPS) with 50 runs scored, 1 homer, 36 RBIs and 35 stolen bases. He has now played in 265 games in his first three years in the minors and he is 237 for 980 (.242 avg, .647 OPS) with 126 runs scored, 2 homers, 100 RBIs and 60 stolen bases. This is going to really hurt Collier’s chance of getting to the majors down the road with the Phillies.
