| Biography: |
Brian Giles hit .284 with 23 homers and 94 RBI last year. But his on-base percentage and slugging percentage were both far off his career averages. Homer total was down 15 from two years ago. If he doesn't do more, the trade for the native San Diegan -- from Pittsburgh for LHP Oliver Perez and OF Jason Bay -- could be remembered as one of the worst in Padres history.
Brian Giles was acquired during the 2003 season from the Pittsburgh Pirates in exchange for Jason Bay, Oliver Perez and Cory Stewart. Giles sports a career batting average over .300 and an OBP of .417. |
