What? Holy cow,if that isn't the kiss of death I don't know what is. Maybe I should downgrade him.

I havent really agreed with many of the rankings around right now.....i think the ones i agree with closest would be the MLB.com ones. They have giles at 4. Whether he steps up one or two places in my opinion is neglegible - the top 4 are all quality with a not bad number 5. Just like the SS's i guess...

AGREED

i have him 4 behind soriano, boone, kent

i have him 5th, being soriano, boone, kent and michael young. young produces across all 5 cats and has A-Rod, Blalock and Tex hitting behind him. he is going to see a ton of fastballs and will produce great numbers in that launching pad they call a stadium. that being said, giles is still my solid # 5. if he hadnt lost javy and shef id be a little higher on him.

This is what I don't understand. Sure Sheff is an awesome hitter..but Giles will still have The Jones's protecting him. I don't think pitchers will pitch around him to get to them any more than they would Sheff and Lopez
