Mariners Notebook: Guillen Released from Hospital

October 5, 2001

Carlos Guillen was released from the hospital yesterday, his case of TB no longer contagious. But there is no telling when the Mariners shortstop might be able to play again. "He's in an improved condition," Mariners team physician Mitch Storey said. "He'll be re-examined Wednesday, and we'll make a judgment on his status at that time." Guillen was hospitalized for five days after the diagnosis, and has been ruled out for the first round of the American League Division Series that starts Tuesday. Meanwhile, Mariners players and staff members spent the day being tested for TB as a precaution.
