Grapefruit League Preview (GM #1): Rays @ Twins

3. DEFENSE PROTECTS BALL GAMES

Defensively, this team will be fascinating to follow this spring in both the infield and the outfield.

Truly, the corner position isn't set in stone, and there will be many moving pieces with the WBC players breaking camp in almost a week.

With that being said, today's game should be a small indicator as to what we could see from the Rays for the season in terms of the hot corners.

With a mix of " Paredes and Ramirez,"  who are going to be in Fort Myers according to Topkin, and potential other 1Bs and 3Bs traveling Saturday, it could bring early competition to the club's first game.
