Beschreibung | Kenneth Robert Giles (born September 20, 1990) is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Seattle Mariners of Major League Baseball (MLB). He previously played for the Philadelphia Phillies, Houston Astros, and Toronto Blue Jays. Giles opened the 2015 season as the team's primary setup man, but when the Phillies traded their closer (Jonathan Papelbon), Giles assumed that role. Renowned for his fastball that can reach upwards of 100 miles per hour (160 km/h), Giles is a power pitcher who pairs his fastball with a slider to compile high strike-out rates. |
