R.A. Dickey
great story. I believe injuries kept him from continuing to be a big time MLB pitcher unless/until he resorted to the knuckleball. Then he goes out and wins the Cy Young. Talk about adapting and persevering...

R.A. does not have an ulnar collateral ligament in his throwing arm. Cost him millions. Upon discovery his signing bonus went from 1.25 to $75k.

His biography book is a great read.
