Royals Review (Free subscription) | yesterday
Tigers 33, Royals 6. But hey, they denied Armando Galarraga his perfecto. I credit Hillman's leadership, especially that "put away the chairs" thing he did in Spring Training. Oh, and league average superstar Jose Guillen's feisty attitude. He won't let this bunch accept failure.

"Jose Guillen was pinch-hitting for…Alex Gordon. Alex Gordon, who’s hitting .280/.365/.492 against right-handed pitching. Gordon, who’s just a tick behind David DeJesus as the best hitter on the team against right-handers. With Guillen, who’s hitting .257/.275/.420 against RHP. I dare say it’s unusual to deliberately give up the platoon advantage when pinch-hitting in any situation, unless the batter...

CHICAGO | Esteban German's bat, José Guillen's arm and maybe the law of averages. That sums up the Royals' 8-7 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Sunday afternoon at U.S. Cellular Field.

Bob Dutton of The Kansas City Star doesn't expect the Royals to move anyone before the deadline because all of their pieces are under contract beyond this season and/or integral to their plan to contend in the future. The Royals 2-prospect pricetag is too steep for Jose Guillen who's signed through 2010 and leads the team in HR and RBI. Gil Meche has a no-trade clause and even so, the Royals feel he's...

CHICAGO | This is hardly the way the Royals wanted to head into their post-break schedule Friday night: having to scratch the biggest bat from their lineup. Outfielder Jose Guillen was unavailable for the series opener against the Chicago White Sox after awakening early Friday with back spasms. He worked out three days in a row in a (batting) cage in Las Vegas, manager Trey Hillman said. It just...

Detroit Tigers' Carlos Guillen was on cloud nine last week when he and wife Amelia welcomed daughter Camelia Jose Guillen on Monday, July 7th, but the bliss was short-lived. The 32-year-old third baseman has temporarily left the team to be with his wife, who was hospitalized earlier this week due...

With the Mariners in town to visit the Royals for a weekend series, it gave the Seattle writers a chance to catch up with former Mariner Jose Guillen. And believe me when I say this, I was absolutely floored to read the comments not only Guillen made about the state of the Mariners, but [...]

Guillen takes some getting used to, and a profanity-laced tirade toward younger teammates back in April, not to mention a shouting match with a coach last weekend, have some good-natured Midwestern folks here scratching their heads in bewilderment. But one thing that hasn't changed for Guillen is his fever for playing the game hard and his willingness to get in people's faces when they don't do the...

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Mariners' 2008 decline started in the fall of 2007 when they couldn't reach a deal to keep right fielder Jose Guillen.

Despite all the major-league stops José Guillen has made in the last decade, it was not enough to get him the final spot on the American League All-Star team.
