Odds and Ends: Giles, Chacon, Durbin

By Tim Dierkes [December 19, 2007 at 2:17pm CST]

Here are today's random rumor tidbits.

The Rox are interested in Marcus Giles for their second base opening. Giles was awful last year, they should just try something internal. Other Rockies notes: contracts with Kip Wells and Luis Vizcaino aren't quite finalized, and they may ink Victor Zambrano to a minor league deal. UPDATE: Wells, plus Mark Redman, are done deals.

The Pirates still have their eye on Shawn Chacon and Chad Durbin. That''ll put butts in the seats. Also, Jake of Bucco Blog weighs in on a new Pirates hire.

Speaking of Durbin, did he comment on this blog and suggest he's headed to the NL? I'm not sure.

Drays Bay talked to Gerry Hunsicker. Seth Speaks talked to Pat Neshek.

Things are mostly quiet with the Brewers, but this Tom Haudricourt blog post notes tepid discussions for Scott Rolen, Hank Blalock, and Andre Ethier.

I'm with you on the trying something internal part.

But I don't think Giles would be horrible at Coors. That uppercut swing of his could do him well there.
