Jose Guillen almost pulls a Milton Bradley
http://kansascity.royals.mlb.com/con...7/c3374050.jsp
Guillen exchanges words with fan 08/27/2008 12:30 AM ET By Dick Kaegel / MLB.com 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...

I agree. Ironically, Guillen is having a similiar year to Hunter. He has more RBI's, but his average is lower.

I could see him having a higher avg. and more patience at the plate if he had any help around him or was a compliment to another hitter. There is really no one on this team that represents a solid MLB hitter except for Aviles at the end of the year and Dejesus

The hit bounced off the wall straight to the outfielder. Had Guillen gone to 2nd he would of been shot by a mile. Gathright would of been shot by a mile the bounce was so good.
The media has done its job in making Guillen a bad guy to uninformed fans I guess. |

I saw that play as well, the media loves to run with shit, but honestly the Royals have not disciplined him either on anything.

I mentioned it earlier, there are far more deserving targets of frustration than Guillen. But the fans know its easy to get under this guys skin, so i understand why they do it.

The fan was the one making a big deal about him not running. I don't think the media has ever said a peep about the actual play.

According to some people who were at the game, the fan was referring to Guillen as "boy."
Petro talked about this at the open of his show. |
