What's up with Giles???

[r8rferg]

he missed one game last week for a scheduled day off. now he has missed two games in a row. any idea what's going on. is his collarbone bothering him or are the Braves just trying to get Nick Green some playing time? I can't afford to have a second basemen on the bench..if Giles isn't going to play i need to add someone.

Pulled groin, he's hoping to avoid the DL(Rotoworld). Thank God for
Loretta.

Braves announcers (Houston/Atlanta) just mentioned Giles is "expected" back for tomorrow night's game. For what it's worth . . . that, plus the various rotoworld/wire reports have me holding on for another day or two, before I make a move to replace him. I suspect he will be back in 1-3 days or on the DL within that time. (Here's hoping it's the former).

Marcus Giles (2B) ATL
Giles (groin) hopes to be back by Friday, the team's official site reports. Giles was pleased that the team ruled out a DL stint. Expect him back Friday

I would never drop Giles, love him when he' s healthy. I'll say this,
I got Loretta late in the draft, and he may be the most unerated
player in FBB. If Marcus could have stayed healthy, I would have
traded him in a NY minute.

hope its nto another Furcal, where he should be back firday & nothign for 2 weeks, anyway i hopehes back fri like they say

Giles is truly a gifted ballplayer, tis a shame injuries have hurt his season. Hopefully he could get over this bump in the road and have a great stretch to finish out the year.

Dammit, not again. It's a good thing I just acquired Loretta.

Marcus just hit a sac fly as a ph-er in the ninth. Good sign, right?
