SF Giants Rumors – Bautista Out, Wellemeyer In, Guillen Next?
Bob Dutton of the Kansas City Star tweets that the Royals have designated Jose Guillen for assignment. Which means if the San Francisco Giants want to bring him over then this could be happening within then next 10 days.
Guillen hasn’t been swinging the bat well as of late. In the last 10 games his AVG has dropped from .271 to .255. He was hitting .081.with 0 home runs, and 3 RBI’s during that span.
The Giants twitter page has a tweet saying “Today’s SF transaction: Denny Bautista has been designated for assignment. Todd Wellemeyer has been reinstated from disabled list”. This was a move that I’m sure a lot of us seen coming. Bautista just couldn’t get it together. The way he was pitching (wild) he wouldn’t have been able to hit water if he fell out of a boat.

All I can say is… please, no Jose Guillen. Dunn would in all likelihood be a valuable addition, but the Nat’s cost and Sabean’s proclivity for giving away young talent could very well end in long term disaster. On the other hand, it would suck if the Rockies added his bat to their lineup.
