Blalock because of injuries may not cost that much in a trade.
He's signed for the 2009 season at a little over 6 million.
The only free agent 3b worth anything will be Joe Crede, and he's going to cost you at least 3-yrs for 24 million.
What if the asking price is some combination of these players Kevin Correia, Jack Taschner, Pat Misch, Randy Winn, Dave Roberts (w/the Giants eating most of his contract), or Ivan Ochoa?
Of course we could resign Jose Castillo.
My point is let's find out what the Rangers asking price is, before saying we don't have any interest in Blalock.
