TORONTO - The Rays have a deal in place to get infielder/outfielder Eric Sogard in trade from the Blue Jays, whom they are playing right now.
Nothing is expected to be made official until after the game, as medical reviews are believed to be ongoing.
The return from the Rays is not known but is not expected to include major-league talent.
Sogard has been having a good year for the Blue Jays, hitting .300 with 10 homers and 30 RBIs. His acquisition is a bit surprising in that he hits left-handed and they have been looking for a right-handed hitter.
