The Boston Red Sox have claimed Padres right fielder Brian Giles off the waiver wire, if only to keep him away from the two teams with better records in the American League. Thus, Boston entered a 48-hour period in which the Sox have exclusive rights to try to work out a trade with San Diego.

Red Sox will use him as the DH if not the bench

So, the Red Sox got this right fielder guy to keep him away from Tampa and New York, but will trade him to San Diego (they need a right fielder?) for someone that they really want/need? Do I have that right? Who do they want from San Diego?

Oh shiznitz ... the Padres are San Diego ... see, I have much to learn.

Just remember that the Twins are in Minnesota and you will know enough.

Well, Minnesota Twins just kinda rolls off the tongue ... they sound like they go together. San Diego Padres doesn't come as easy, for some reason.
