I know he's hurt...and it's early in the season...but seriously. David Glass gives 36 million dollars to a guy who hits a weak grounder to third with the bases loaded? Really?
Jose Guillen is really pushing the limits of Royals fans' patience.
Here's the thing. I'm watching the game last night on television. Guillen comes up with the bases loaded, two outs against a rookie pitcher. If this isn't the scenario we hired him for, what is? He takes a 94 mph fastball down the middle of the plate. A fat juicy steak. And he takes it for strike one! Then he swings like he wants to pop his bad hip out of place for strike two! Then hits a weak chopping grounder on a pitch that was probably ball four?
Even though I was watching on TV you could tell the place was ready to go nuts and embrace Guillen with open arms. Instead he ends a potentially enormous inning. And the fans continue to be weary of him. NOT a good way to win over your new team's fans.
