Tampa DFA'd Grant Balfour after a poor outing. Apparently their leash is waaaay shorter than what the Reds have for some of the assclowns in the bullpen. Balfour has always been a bit of an enigma with lots of good outings mixed in with the occasional gas can job. His first 5 outings this season he was unscored upon, but this last one versus the Yankees he got lit up for 3 runs in 2/3 inning. Sounds like typical work for the Reds pen. If the price was right I would take a flier on this guy. He brings an energy and attitude that this team completely lacks. Not everyone cares for Balfour because of some of his antics, but no one can argue that he is an intense, competitive SOB.
