Rockies interested in Giles, Towers


The Colorado Rockies have strong interest in 2nd baseman Marcus Giles and right-hander Josh Towers to bring in more competition and depth to their roster.


Giles could push rookie Jayson Nix for the 2nd base job come spring training. Though GM Dan O'Dowd has said that he's very comfortable filling the job internally, both Ian Stewert and Jeff Baker are not familiar with 2nd base and it would be a position change for both.


Josh Towers has been on the Rockies' radar since July, though they also have been in touch with Victor Zambrano.
