MONDAY, 3:06pm: Heyman writes that the Rays and Blalock are working out final details on a "complicated deal that will enable him to opt out if he's not in the majors."
SUNDAY, 8:52pm: The Rays are close to signing Hank Blalock to a minor league deal and could finalize the contract by tomorrow.
Marc Topkin of the St. Petersburg Times reported (via Twitter) that the sides were near a deal and added that the deal should be finalized soon (via Twitter). Jon Heyman of SI.com reported (via Twitter) that Blalock was deciding between the Rays and Marlins and later added that the infielder was in "serious talks" with the Rays (Twitter link).
The Scott Boras client will make substantially less than the $6MM the Rangers paid him last year. The Marlins, who were the only other team linked to Blalock recently, offered him a minor league deal a few weeks ago.
Blalock, 29, hit .234/.277/.459 last year with the Rangers, adding 25 homers. Blalock, who hasn't played more than 39 games at third since 2006, split his time between first base and DH in 2009.
