Fantasy Analysis
Balentien has played 170 games in the majors, hitting .221 with 15 homers and 52 RBI over three seasons. He could have been in line for a late-season callup but that will obviously be delayed with this injury. He should be ignored in all formats while he's down on the farm and on the DL.
