He went 6-7 with a 4.69 ERA in 14 starts. 33/24 K/BB in 80 innings. Don't know what his pedigree is, but he was the 41st pick in the 2004 draft.</p> <p>Looks like Wiliams and Sox did undervalue (at least relative to the opinion of many here at RR) Swisher.</p> <p>I guess we can put that rumor to bed.</p>
