Joe Smith, of The St. Petersburg Times, reports Tampa Bay Rays IF Reid Brignac is in Mexico, where he's playing winter ball, and he is trying to improve defensively at second and refine his pitch selection at the plate while diversifying himself around the infield. "Legitimately, I've got an opportunity to make the team this year," Brignac said. "I knew in the past I was gaining experience and being around the guys. Now, hopefully, I'm going in competing for a job."
