Former Chicago White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen doesn't think too highly of retired slugger Nick Swisher.

Guillen was asked about Swisher while offering analysis about Wednesday's White Sox loss to the Milwaukee Brewers.

"I hate Nick Swisher with my heart," the 56-year-old said.

Guillen explained that his hatred for Swisher stemmed from his "fake" attitude and that he "never talked to him" even though he managed him in 2008.

Swisher had one of the worst seasons of his career under Guillen, hitting .219/.332/.410. He was traded to the New York Yankees and regained his form the following season.
