Mr. Jose wants Traded

Source: Relationship with Hillman in tatters, Guillen wants out of K.C.

Left fielder Jose Guillen wants out of Kansas City pronto, according to a source who spoke to ESPNdeportes.com on condition of anonymity.


Guillen feels the Royals have not kept the promises made when he signed for three years and $36 million during the offseason, said the source. But the main reason he is in "living hell in Kansas City" is a foul relationship with manager Trey Hillman.

"Guillen and Hillman are not on speaking terms, they don't talk," said the source. "Guillen is definitely not happy, he's not comfortable and he would do anything he can in economic terms to ease his way out of Kansas City."

When Guillen signed with Kansas City he knew the team wouldn't be a contender in 2008, but he was promised that moves would be made to build a winning team in 2009, said the source.

The 32-year-old is leading the Royals with 14 home runs and 69 RBIs, but he has been nursing a groin injury that kept him out of the lineup on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Rays.

Guillen's bat could help a number of teams in the race for the postseason, but Kansas City has not shown any interest in trading him. The source said Guillen is ready to defer his salary for 2009 and 2010 if it helps increase his value on the trading block.

Can you blame the guy?

Fans boo him, call him names, while they cheer for complete scrubs like Teahen. This town like I said would rather have nice guys than guys that are good.

Get him out of the fish bowl of KC and he'll thrive in a more player-friendly market.

I think this market has a serious complex about wanting to feel like the players are their friends, the minute a guy isn't overly nice they freak out and hate him and want him gone regardless of whether he does his job or not.

They are sports players they are not our buddies, it's his job to play ball not be nice or be our friend.

There's truth to this, but players have to wash the sand out and be able to overcome the little bit of shit that comes their way in KC.

That's fine but you gotta admit he's taken way more than his fair share for being on this garbage team and pretty much just bitching that he doesn't accept losing....

“Give me 25 guys like Ross Gload, and I’ll take the field against anybody,” Hillman said.

“He’s just one of those guys that’ll run into a wall for you. He’s a leader in the clubhouse. Players look up to him.”

I highly disagree! He used to be in a player friendly market.

I'm an Angels fan, and we are super player friendly. We love our players and we hated him. He was the only Angel that drew boos form the crowd. The guy is a grade-A jackass.
He was such a jerk in the clubhouse, that we benched him just before playoffs, and he had a high batting average, RBI's etc...but still we said No way Jose. There's a reason he keeps going from one team to another.

The guy is hopeless, period. Awesome with the bat, but awful outside the lines.

Has the Planet stopped handing out sarcasm meters? I don't know if there's a more player-friendly market than KC. If a player does anything here for even the shortest amount of time, there will be a host of fans who will defend that person to the death. For example, see yesterday's DeJesus thread.

I agree with Mecca, however. There's been a lot of unfounded love spouted on this forum for much of the young talent on this team. The Matt Holliday discussion comes to mind. People were freaking out over the thought of trading Butler (whose fat ass has really started to hit well lately, by the way), Teahen, or Hochevar.

And all three of them still probably wouldn't fetch Holliday.

No, I wasnt being sarcastic. I dont know how player friendly royals fans are, but I know how player friendly Angels fans are. We NEVER boo our players, but we booed Guillen.

The guy is a complete jerk-off. And it isnt the media. He is a cancer in the clubhouse and it certainly doesnt surprise me that he isnt getting along with your coach. Its the way he operates. I dont know if you guys would be better off without him or not, but we were....Good riddance...
