Mariners to Extend Guillen

The Mariners are very close to extending Jose Guillen's contract, according to several Major League Sources. The deal, which has yet to be announced, is expected to be three years, worth 18-22 million dollars. "We've been talking and we've been making very good progress," Guillen said Tuesday. "I really don't want to talk about it, but I'm pretty sure it will be done soon." This season, Guillen is batting .293 with 19 HR and 81 RBIs.
