1997, pitcher Brett Tomko broke into the Major Leagues with the
Reds. And if a report is true, Tomko is headed back to where his
career began.  The website, MLB Trade Rumors, reported on
Thursday that Tomko agreed to a Minor League contract with the
Reds. A club spokesman had no official information of a deal
being done.  In what became the start a well-traveled tour
around the league, Tomko was traded from the Reds to the
Mariners in the Feb. 10, 2000, deal that brought Ken Griffey Jr.
to Cincinnati.   From 1997-99 as mostly a starting pitcher for
the Reds, Tomko was 29-26 with a 4.35 ERA in 89 games, including
79 starts. The right-hander has also pitched for the Padres,
Cardinals, Giants, Dodgers, Royals, A's and Yankees.  If Tomko
is added, the Reds Spring Training roster will be at 58 players,
including 30 pitchers.
