    Padres San Diego media reports Brian Giles resigned

    No link, because it's being reported on 1090 and local news, but it's being reported that the Padres resigned Brian Giles for 3 years. No report on $$$ amount.

    I'll come back with a link if I find one

    it's all over the San Diego media. The news channels are reporting it and the radio is as well.

    Haven't found an internet link, yet, but it's gotta be legit

    3 years, 30 mil with a club option for a 4th year at another 9 mil, or a 3 mil buyout if they don't take the 4th year.

    Free agent outfielder Brian Giles has reached preliminary agreement to return to the San Diego Padres.

    Giles, who initially turned down a three-year, $25.5 million deal from the Padres, agreed to a three-year contract worth $30 million.

    The Toronto Sun reported Tuesday that the Toronto Blue Jays had made a five-year, $55 million offer to Giles, a story that general manager J.P. Ricciardi refuted.

    SAN DIEGO (AP) -- Right fielder Brian Giles reached a preliminary agreement Wednesday night to re-sign with his hometown San Diego Padres for $30 million over three years.
    The deal is pending Giles' scheduled physical on Thursday morning and an announcement is expected later in the day, two baseball officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the deal had not been finalized yet.

    One of the top outfielders on the free-agent market, Giles batted .301 with 15 homers and 83 RBIs last season, leading the NL West-champion Padres in most offensive categories. He drew a Major League-best 119 walks and had a .423 on-base percentage.

    Now the Pads have one helluvan expensive OF that will produce a lot less than what they are paid. Klesko has got to go out the door if they want any shot at getting some pitching.
