The season is two-thirds over. What's left is half of what came before. Teams and players who want to finish strong have to kick it in right now.
Brett Tomko is your basic right-handed innings eater. He was a second-round draft pick who picked up a lot of hype as he broke into the bigs with the Reds, who desperately wanted him to succeed. After throwing 200 innings in each of the previous two seasons for NL West clubs, he signed a one-year, $1.5M deal this past January with a $2.5M club option that won't be picked up, I'll guess. His similar pitchers at Baseball-Reference.com are Pete Schourek, Rick Helling, and Cal Eldred. Sounds right to me. Nothing terribly interesting in his record against the current Bucs.
