right, but I just think theres no way he'll be as good as he is now if he has to pickup a bigger workload. maybe it's just wishful thinking, but he won't have 99mph heat every night as a starter, and does he have a reliable third pitch? I've even come up with a nickname for him: "Blow-Joba". DUC what I did there?

I c what u did there.
IIRC, as a starter in the minors he was still sitting 96-97 with the same filthy slider. He may not be sitting at 99 like he does out of the pen, but I'd say he'll still be a pretty [censored] good starter.
Oh and he's still working on his change. My guess is that that'll be the focus of spring training for him.
