Jacob Luft on Benson

Jacob Luft wrote this back in April for Sports Illustrated. It begins like this:

Three years ago, the Pirates traded away a career underachiever on the verge of free agency.

Jason Schmidt, upon becoming a member of the Giants, instantly became the top-of-the-rotation workhorse the Pirates had been lacking. Schmidt went 7-1 for San Francisco down the stretch in 2001 and followed with 13-8 and 17-5 records in 2002 and '03, respectively.
