I think somebody posted that about Dietrich. Not saying both can't be true, or false
I don't know anything about Swihart, but Dietrich apparently rubbed some people the wrong way before DC. I've been looking just now, though, and seen some more positive things leak into the media, so maybe he's been maturing a bit, maybe that all was exaggerated, whatever. It's just a pretty high bar for your personality in a clubhouse to make it through the rumor mill to nobodies like me.
I don't mean to be too hard on the dude - everyone has different swag - but the whispers were pretty loud for a while and it would seem to explain why worse hitters got better chances. On the other hand, Carl Everett kept getting shots at the big time, so...
