Rays' Ryan Brett: Signs minor league deal with Rays

Brett (elbow) signed a minor league deal with the Rays on Wednesday that includes an invitation to spring training, the Tampa Bay Times' Marc Topkin reports.

Brett was an interesting second base prospect a few years ago, showcasing a potentially plus hit tool. However, injuries have derailed his career since then, as he missed all of 2016 with an elbow injury. At 25 years old, he could still make some noise, but the odds are against it.
