The Tampa Bay Rays reportedly remain steadfast in their pursuit of Jose Bautista.
According to Jon Morosi of MLB Network, the Rays have renewed interest in the veteran slugger after the sides also had discussions last winter.
Bautista's agent Jay Alou told Morosi that his client is open to playing different positions, including the corner infield, corner outfield or designated hitter.
The 37-year-old slashed just .203/.308/.366 with 23 home runs and 65 RBIs across 686 plate appearances last season for the Toronto Blue Jays.
