The Rays might be in the market for a closer to replace Troy Percival (though he has a $4 million guarantee for next season), but they might just give the job to Grant Balfour, who has the stuff and the mind-set. They could upgrade offensively and opt for a righthanded power hitter to play right field (if they feel Rocco Baldelli can't).

Agree on Percival. He was once great but is done. Balfour has been very good and could be the closer.
