Tyler Collins knee X-rays negative, but Tigers could add another outfielder for Thursday.

Veteran oufielder Alex Presley was removed from Toledo's game Wednesday night, suggesting he could be coming to Detroit.
The Tigers would need to add him to the 40-man roster to complete the transaction.

Alex Presley will join Tigers, which will need to make 40-man move to open roster spot for him.

Tigers Designate Bobby Parnell For Assignment.
MLBtraderumors

The Tigers announced that they have designated right-hander Bobby Parnell for assignment and selected the contract of veteran outfielder Alex Presley from Triple-A Toledo. Parnell’s DFA creates a spot on the 40-man roster for Presley, and he’ll be added to the big league roster at the expense of outfielder Steven Moya, who has been optioned back to Toledo, per the club.

August 18 in Tigers and mlb history:

1907: Detroit's first Sunday game at home since 1902, and the first at Bennett Park, is a 16 - 3 win over New York.

1915 - Detroit trades outfielder Baby Doll Jacobson to the Browns.

1936 - Tigers second baseman Charlie Gehringer gets his 2,000th hit.

1938: When Detroit's Billy Rogell walks his first time up, it is his seventh consecutive base on balls, a new American League record.

1961 - Ron Kline, purchased from the Angels on August 10, blanks the Red Sox on four hits to give the Tigers a 5 - 0 win. Bill Monbouquette fails for the 9th time to win his 9th, lasting just four innings and gives up homers to Billy Bruton and Rocky Colavito.

1977: Jason Thompson became just the third Tigers player to hit a home run completely over the right-field roof of Tiger Stadium, joining Norm Cash and Jim Northrup. By the time Tiger Stadium closed, 32 balls had been hit fair over the right-field roof, and Thompson had two of them. But his blast 38 years ago today had something no other rooftop home run had: Thompson hit it off a pitcher who would go on to the Baseball Hall of Fame - Catfish Hunter of the New York Yankees.

1984 - Detroit's Juan Berenguer goes 8 1/3 innings and strikes out 12 to give the Tigers a 4 - 3 victory over the Mariners. Kirk Gibson drives in three runs with his 20th homer of the year, and becomes the first Tiger ever to reach 20 in both homers and steals. Gibson's homer is his 15th game-winning RBI this year.
