by Bob Timmermann

The initial being M for Marcus Giles who was non-tendered by the Braves. Once the deal is done, the Padres would have the Giles Brothers, Marcus and Brian.

There is no word if the J. Geils Band will being playing any gigs at PETCO.

FREEZE FRAME!

The combined initials being BMG.

Padres fans, for a limited time only, are eligible to receive 12 CDs for the price of one!

Xei, don't forget the Padres signing of Jose Cruz, Jr., too. If that didn't push them to the top of the division, I don't know what would!

Now all they need is Rupert Giles in the front office, and they'll be set.

Too bad they can't hire Scott Skiles as head coach.

Scott Skiles wouldn't let the players wear caps.

Should I send out a search party for Nelson Briles and Earnie Riles?

Aaron Miles?

Julia Stiles?

The possibilities are limitless.
