Giles loves hitting at GAB: Padres OF Brian Giles hit a two-run double off Reds SP Johnny Cueto Tuesday in one of his favorite ballparks -- he's a .329 career hitter at Great American -- and scored on a single by Adrian Gonzalez. Giles finished 1-for-3 with two walks. Giles is 7-for-18 (.389) with four RBI and five walks during a five-game hitting streak. (Updated 07/22/2008).
Injury Report
No information available at this time (Updated 7/26/08).
Fantasy Analysis
Giles missed the six games leading up to the All-Star break with a hamstring injury, but took the extra time to rest and has been on fire at the plate since. Giles no longer has big power numbers and remains more of a low-end Fantasy OF when healthy. (Updated 07/22/2008).
