rsync and compression

I have a directory that I backup using rsync with --link-dest and hard
links, but I would like the files in that directory to be zipped to
conserve space. They are very large log text files (hundreds of megs)
that compress 90% or more.
Is there some way to do this so that all the files rsync backs up get
compressed?
The only thing I can think of is manually compressing the directories
after rsync runs, but that seems like quite a waste or time and
resources.
