Guillen exchanges words with fan

KANSAS CITY -- Royals right fielder Jose Guillen was in the middle of a brief exchange with a fan after the fourth inning of Tuesday night's game against the Rangers.

The fan, sitting behind first base, apparently got on Guillen after he hit a liner off the left-field wall and stopped with a single in the second inning and again after he flied out in the fourth.

"I understand who I am and the money that I'm making. I understand that I'm hitting .250 and the fans are expecting a lot more than they're seeing," Guillen said.

"But sometimes they don't know what I'm going through and all that stuff. Just like when I got that hit to left field, I got there and the guy started jumping on me and saying all kind of stuff like 'Why didn't you make it to second?' I hit the ball hard, the guy made a nice play and I had no chance to make it."

Teammates interceded during the exchange and the incident was over quickly.

"He said something personal about my family and I don't deal with that. He can say whatever he wants to say but if you just say the magic words about somebody that's close to you, that's enough right there," Guillen said.
_________________________________________________________
my thoughts...

Supposedly people around the fan that got kicked out, said he didn't curse and kept pushing Guillen to hustle. Rumors are he said "my daughter can out run you!"...

I saw it on tv earlier and he was ready to walk up to the fan and the guy was shooing him away and then Gathright held him back...

Don't know what to think, but makes me wonder if Guillen will be out of here in the offseason?! Dayton really hasn't said much of it, just saying he has to be a pro etc...

Yea, its just frustration and boredom more than anything on the fans part.

A sad commentary on the state of this franchise.

Funny that you disregard the fact that we are paying a guy $12 million a year to dog it down to first, then blame the fans.

I can't believe we have two more years of this a-hole.

Demonpenz · 08-27-2008, 08:47 PM

haha what a duechebag cry baby. I predicted this would happen action for action. He does this same shit every year. I thought maybe he would learn his lesson. Right after that first tirade I told everyone. Wait till he tries to beat a fans ass. He has done it every where he has went, why stop now. Fools pay him.

Sure-Oz · 08-27-2008, 08:50 PM

Royals lose again, bannister drops a pop up to him and they score the winning run...would've been the 3rd out....

This team makes the chiefs last pre-season game look like their ready for the SB

guillen's comments needed to be said, but he is also the kind of player that will just loaf. Don't be surprise if fans love him after the outburst but then later on punches a fan or swings a bat at an umpire. Either way I guess it is entertainment

Demonpenz · 08-27-2008, 08:54 PM

That queer's talked shit about the royals being babies and he can't even handle himself daily without crying

Yeah, he was there again. I even talked to him. Our seats were literally the first row behind the first base where you can put your beer on the dugout. He came down and talked to somebody he knew right behind me, and he just yelled "GUIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLEEEEEEENNNNN" and laughed and went back to his seat. They said he didn't really say anything about Jose's family or ethnicity, Jose just freaked out.

Look, im not saying hes perfect, but hes just an easy scapegoat for frustrated fans.

There are are few other turds on that team that deserve to be called out more than Guillen. Teahan, Bannister, Buck, Gload, Gordon etc...

The whole team sucks.

Hootie · 08-28-2008, 09:28 AM

he has no trade value...he's making $12M and he has an OBP of under .300, easily...that's sick.

The only way he gets traded is if the Royals eat some of the outrageous salary he is paid.

+1 for Meche...-2 for Guillen.

Demonpenz · 08-28-2008, 09:29 AM

Guillen doesn't even play hard. Atleast those other turds try. While Gload is busting his as swatting balls away that would be homeruns. Guillen is climbing walls trying to swat fans

**gblowfish** · 08-28-2008, 10:06 AM

Let's look at this objectively:

He's the highest paid player on the team.

He does not hustle. Ever.

The team is 19 games under .500, 20 games out of first place, 8 games out of tying Detroit for last. They have a legit chance to lose 100 games again this year.

He should expect the fans to be upset.

I blame Hillman and Dayton Moore for putting up with his crap. They knew he was a head case when they picked him up.

Not only that, but name one player besides Aviles and Soria who has performed above expectations this year.....

Hard to say, ain't it?

Brand new year.

Same old crap.

They pretty much had to. He was the biggest bat available wasnt he after Tori Hunter spurned us?

Guillen's HR and RBI numbers this year are right on pace with his career averages.

Sure-Oz · 08-28-2008, 12:35 PM

We tried to sign Hunter and i believe LA offered a year more or something....Daytons Idea was to land Hunter, Guillen and Andruw Jones or 2 of the 3. I think he still can be an asset to this team, but he can't pull this shit. We need talent around him, he isn't a true #4 hitter anyway. More like a #5 or 6 on a good team
