Guillen's numbers are 3/8. I guess you can't do '8' followed by a parenthesis without seeming to want some sort of advanced smiley face... Well, that’s silly. Guillen’s numbers are 3/8.

I guess you can’t do ’8′ followed by a parenthesis without seeming to want some sort of advanced smiley face…

I'm still trying to get my mind wrapped around this: in the past "inning" the big bats, as far as HR/RBI go were: Inge (3 / 9) Polanco (3 / 9) Guillen (3 / 8) Huff (2 / 10) Other than Polanco that's a bit surprising--especially Guillen, who has seemed awfully cold to me. Someone made an amusing comment a while back to the effect that there must be a place to buy RBI cheap in Baltimore considering Huff's high total (in comparison with his other offensive numbers). Well, blow me down! as Popeye used to say, darned if he ain't doing the same thing here somehow...
