I was going to make a comment on Peavy when I mentioned Swisher but the edit must not have gone through.
Peavy was actually a decent #4 after the injury, I think he got too much shit because ppl didn't want to accept that he wasn't the same pitcher. Same with Danks after his injury. Danks wasn't going to give up his money so at that point it was up to the Sox to cut him loose, but they continued to run him out there every 5th day to get lit up. He had to get embarrassed on a weekly basis to get paid
