Carl Pavano?  Jaret Wright?
It's not that these guys get healthy and STAY healthy.  But, with the modern push in medical repairs, I suspect there are plenty who got healthy "for a season".  Problem is, there are extremely few players of this quality -- and instead of looking for ANY pitcher to get healthy, the focus is going to only be on those with uber-skills when healthy.
BUT, if you are only a pedestrian pitcher, and keep getting hurt, you stop getting chances.  The problem here is that the pool of "similar" players is so small that it becomes increasingly simple to create look for a test case which is an empty set. 
I do, however, like the concept of Harden for 3 months, followed by Bedard for 3.  :-)  (would that it could work out so symetrically well).
