Khris Davis Eyeing Milwaukee's Left Field Job

The Milwaukee Brewers are moving Ryan Braun to right field, freeing up a spot in left.
Khris Davis is hoping to grab hold of the job. He's vying with Logan Schafer, Caleb Gindl and other outfielders in camp.
"We're not saying that this is Khris' job coming into camp," Ron Roenicke said. "Those other guys are going to be fighting for a job, too."
Davis slugged .596 last season, trailing only Hanley Ramirez, Miguel Cabrera and Chris Davis.
"Every year, I definitely want to earn what I deserve," he said. "The opportunity that's in front of me, I see it. But I have to kind of let it come to me. I feel like I could create a lot of pressure, but if I let it [happen], I think I could do really well."
