    Any word on Balentien?

    I know him and Miles were DFA'd, but I haven't heard anything as far as him being traded, accepting an assignment to AAA, or what. Anyone have any news regarding him?

    I had heard the M's picked up back up, but I could be wrong and hope I am.

    There hasn't been any news on Balentien since he was DFA'd.

    I'm sure Jim Bowden is frantically trying to sign him as we speak. Even though he's unemployed.

    If Jim Bowden was the owner of a major league baseball team would their uniforms include leather pants?

    I hope he accepts the AAA assignment. DFA Terrero and give him the RF job. Let him get a full season of continuous AB's allow him to refine his new approach and Maturity at the plate and hopefully show the Reds he can be a productive ML Player.

    That would be a great move for them. I wouldn't be surprised at all if he ended up there.

    Have to agree with Nemesis in that I hope he accepts assignment to AAA. Would be nice to see him around in the future.
