If Bell, Brocail, Hoffman, and Cla all go in before Tomko (which they will) Tomko won't have very many opportunities to blow a close game....if he's in the pen.
If he's the #5 guy we really won't be taking any more of a chance with him than we'd otherwise be doing with Jack Cassel, his one decent start not withstanding.
I just hope that if he is starting that he's on a short leash.
