./monero-wallet-cli --wallet-file=XXXX --daemon-address YYYYY --command "balance"
When I use the above command, it gives me the ability to see my balance, but how do I make it where it doesn't output the startup message when monero cli starts?
End result, I just want to be able to output the balance and save it to a file or pass it into an argument of another command like grep.

The simplest way (*nix) is:
monero-wallet-cli --wallet-file your-wallet --password 'your-password' \
--command balance | tail -2
You can of course pipe through anything that accepts data on stdin.
Another example:
monero-wallet-cli --wallet-file your-wallet --password 'your-password' \
--command accounts | tail -n +15 | head -n -3
Removes the header and footer from accounts output displaying everything in between.
