Cristian Guzmán (born March 21, 1978) is a baseball player who has played shortstop in the major leagues for the Minnesota Twins and Washington Nationals. Guzmán was acquired by Minnesota in 1998 from the New York Yankees organization as part of the Chuck Knoblauch trade.

Guzmán's best year was in 2001. He was named to the All-Star team and posted career bests with 10 home runs and a .302 batting average. He was a key part of the Twins teams that won three consecutive American League Central titles from 2002-2004. While a Twin, he led the American League in triples in 2000 (20), 2001 (14) and 2003 (14). Since baseball's integration in 1947, Guzmán and George Brett are the only infielders to have 20 triples in one year.

He signed with the Nationals for the 2005 season and posted career lows in many major batting categories, including a .219 average.

In 2001 his OBP was .814.
