Blalock Extended


The Texas Rangers have picked up the $6.2million option on Hank Blalock. After having a terrible past two years that were filled with injuries the Rangers hope he can relive his 2003-2005 seasons.

I think this is a decent contract and the Rangers made the right choice. With Blalock or Davis at 1B/3B and Young and Kinsler patrolling the middle, the Rangers have a very solid infield. The only problem is if all 4 can stay healthy. Kinsler has never finished a complete season and as we all know Blalock is always a day away from some sort of DL stint.

Hopefully the Rangers can do some damage in the AL West in 2009.
