Detroit Tigers 3rd basemen Carlos Guillen has had some trouble getting around lately due to a burning pain in his ass.
“He can hardly move — he’s got hemorrhoids so bad,” Tigers manager Jim Leyland said Tuesday. “He’s been playing with hemorrhoids that probably need to be lanced. He probably shouldn’t have been out there (third base on Monday).”
Leyland also said the hemorrhoids have been bothering Guillen for about four or five days, but they have gotten really painful in the last few days. “He could hardly walk (Monday night),” Leyland said.
Time for the Tigers to stock up on some Preparation H!

Boston Red Sox Pitcher Jon Lester has survived cancer, pitched a World Series clincher and now he has thrown a no-hitter against the Kansas City Royals.
“I can’t tell you which one means more to me than the other,” Lester said. “The World Series is, obviously, the World Series. How many people get to say they’ve won that? And a no-hitter is a no-hitter. How many people can say they’ve done that?
Lester is one of the good guys in the sports world and he deserves all the success he gets. Congrats Jon.
