Reds' Ryan Raburn: Good chance to Reds roster spot

Raburn and fellow NRI teammate Desmond Jennings have reasonably good odds to make the Reds' Opening Day roster out of spring training.

Analysis:

The Reds are lacking other veteran alternatives to win bench roles, and they hope to have Jesse Winker begin 2017 back in Triple-A Louisville. Moreover, their starting outfield of Adam Duvall, Billy Hamilton and especially Scott Schebler are somewhat vulnerable to losing playing time.
