Nick Swisher is finally working his way back to the Cleveland Indians a little more than a month after being placed on the disabled list with a knee injury. Whether or not he returns this season is no longer the big question as he has already made a rehab start with the Lake County Captains, and Terry Francona seems optimistic about his progress. The bigger question is what the hell will the Indians do with him when he does come back?
A favorite suggestion among irrational fans is to cut him or "just demote him," neither of which is an especially valid option.
