Ready to play Wednesday
Collins (side/back) will start at designated hitter and bat leadoff in Wednesday's Cactus League game against the Rangers.
Análisis
Collins will return to the lineup for the first time since March 10 after being slowed by mild back and left side tightness over the past week. Prior to missing time, Collins had already logged 20 plate appearances in spring training, so he'll likely need to play in just a couple more games for the Royals to feel comfortable carrying him on the Opening Day roster.

Dealing with back/side tightness
Collins has been dealing with mild back/left side tightness since Tuesday, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.
Análisis
Collins has been idle the last few days, and the Royals are being cautious with the 28-year-old, according to Rogers. Acquired from the Brewers over the offseason, Collins has had a slow spring at the plate, slashing .111/.200/.167 across 20 plate appearances. He's competing for at-bats with Lane Thomas and Starling Marte.
