Guillens suspension lifted

Dick Kaegel reports that the suspensions of Guillen and Jay Gibbons could get lifted Sunday. ""I'm excited about that possibility because the rumors have been pretty consistent about that for several days. We'll see how it goes," Royals manager Trey Hillmam said on Thursday. "


It seems likely that the suspensions will get lifted as they have no intention of suspending the 82 other names in the Mitchell Report. It just amazes me and frustrates the Royals that Major League Baseball plans to wait until Sunday, which is the season opener by the way, to inform the Royals one way or another.

Miguel Olivo has had his suspension changed to four days instead of the five days it was originally. While only one day, it is still good news because the Royals are going to have to run a 24-man roster out there until Olivo comes back.

Update on Guillen: MLB has put the suspension of Jose Guillen and Jay Gibbons on hold for 10 days while an agreement is being worked out.
