M. Giles! Will he turn it around?

[cards05]

OK, is Giles ever gonna pick it up? I did a search for him on here and for some reason it would only let me look at page 1 for the results, so I'm sorry if this has been discussed.

I never want to be the guy who releases a player who turns it around, but I'm getting fed up with him. He is killing my average and not really helping in anything. What do you guys project for him from here on out, and how do you explain his poor performance thus far.

I have no explanation for his struggles, but they have been mighty...and I'm getting very close to dropping him myself

Dropped M. Giles and my 9th waiver for jose lopez


If you can get someone decent off the wire I wouldnt hesitate.

Dump Giles.

My 2 picks for the 2006 Mike Lowell Award are: Marcus Giles and Aubrey Huff. That's 50% based on performance, 50% just gut and watching them play.

He was dropped 2-3 weeks ago in my 8 teamer. He's still sitting there in the free agent pool. Waive him, there has to be someone better on the wire for you. Betemit is going to begin to steal some at bats anyway, by the looks of things.

Both him and my keeper league team are stinking up the joint. I always thought Giles was some what overatted, but I didnt think he could be this bad

Hes been killing me too. I've been wanting to drop him for Loretta or Iguchi but i havent been able to pull the trigger.

He's definitely drop-worthy in a 12-team league. I would have dropped him after 100 AB in an 8-team league. I usually use 200 AB as a drop guideline for established players who you would not draft in the first three rounds. 300 AB for those you would. I held onto Giles a little longer than 200 just because I didn't need the spot but as soon as I did I cut him.

I do think he'll turn it around, but I don't think it'll be enough to be worth waiting for if he does.
