December 17, 200322 yr Author 12/16/2003 8:22 PM ET Vizquel trade to Seattle nixed By Jim Street / MLB.com Slick-fielding shortstop Omar Vizquel played for the Mariners from 1989-93. (John Froschauer/AP) The proposed trade that would return Omar Vizquel to the Mariners is dead. The switch-hitting shortstop told MLB.com Tuesday evening that his surgically repaired right knee didn't pass the physical examination given by Mariners physicians and he remains employed by the Cleveland Indians. "They called me about an hour ago and told me I didn't pass the test on my knee," Vizquel said from his Issaquah, Wash., home. "It was kind of a shock. I was really looking forward to coming back and playing for the Mariners." The trade reportedly would have sent shortstop Carlos Guillen to the Indians, although officials from both organizations would not confirm the particulars of the deal, which was reported in the Seattle Times Tuesday morning. Mariners general manager Bill Bavasi could not be reached for comment. Vizquel said he went to Safeco Field on Tuesday for some agility drills and then was examined by Dr. Larry Pedegana, the Mariners medical director and team physician Dr. Mitch Storey.

December 17, 200322 yr Can I ask a two sided question?? Who will go for Valentin What are you opinion of Guillen, be honest.
December 17, 200322 yr how much is guillen going to make and what makes you think the M's we'll do this trade for jose
December 17, 200322 yr how much is guillen going to make and what makes you think the M's we'll do this trade for jose I think I read Guillen is slated to make $2.25 million this year. Don't know if Jose's offense is enough to make the M's want to take on 2X that in salary.
December 17, 200322 yr Guillen hit in the .270 range and had a .359 OBP thats exactly what the Sox need and he will fit in most awesome in the 2nd slot in the lineup. If they can swing a deal to add Wynn as well, I'd be very confident about the Sox 1-2 punch.
