Grant Balfour will play catch Tuesday for the first time since undergoing arthroscopic surgery on his right knee last week.
That's a good sign for his progress. Balfour was estimated to need 4-6 weeks of recovery time, but assuming he stays on track, there's still a chance he'll be ready for the start of the season. If not, Ryan Cook or Sean Doolittle could get some early save chances.
