Mariners DFA Balentien
By Eddie Schmid [July 25, 2009 at 12:29pm CST]
According to Ed Price of AOL Fanhouse, the Mariners have designated
outfielder Wladimir Balentien for assignment. He's bumped to make room for
Michael Saunders.
The move is somewhat interesting, as the Mariners had once considered the
powerful Balentien the future of their outfield when Adam Jones departed to
the Orioles in the Erik Bedard trade. The 25-year-old Balentien has been
disappointing, though, posting a .619 OPS in 434 plate appearances the last
three seasons. He was ranked the Ms' #5 prospect by Baseball America as
recently as last year. You can bet he'll latch on to another team willing to
gamble.
