It's almost been five years since Nick Castellanos played for the West Michigan Whitecaps, but the 23-year-old Detroit Tigers third baseman left an impression, setting a then-franchise record with 158 hits and driving in 76 runs in 2011.

Castellanos solidified himself in the Tigers' lineup in 2015, hitting .255 with 15 home runs and 73 RBI. That included a late-season surge that saw him hit .305 in the month of September.
