Padres waive Marcus Giles

[Sweet Swinging Billy]

Wow, what a suprise. I wonder if his stats started to slowly decline after his collision with Prior? It certainly appeared to affect Prior in many different ways...or so it seemed.

Oh sorry, I saw this posted on ESPN News.

[Abe Frohman]

Maybe he isn't all that good without the juice?

 

One bad year, I would take a shot with him. Good #2 hitter. Sign Rowand and trade Jones.

No thanks.

stick with derosa.

stick with derosa.

No. He's had two down years and he looks like toast. If San Diego's cutting him loose that's a huge knock on him - these are the guys who still believe Morgan Ensberg and Jason Lane are good contributors.

 

Marcus Giles is like Richard Hidalgo. There was a time when you'd have been glad to have him, but that was years ago.

Hmm... sounds like Phil Nevin and Cliff Floyd...

 

this move wouldn't surprise me at all

Abe, I like you, you seem like a really nice guy. But, you seem to have fallen into an extreme version of the Dustyball mentality.

Why do people keep bringing up past their prime 2B as players to look at?

 

SS, RF, CF and C, people. Those are your lineup black holes to fill.

Obviously. I'm just listing the positions that need to improve.

I really don't want the Cubs to sign Marcus Giles. I do like Theriot, though. I also like you. A lot.
