Brendan Beck is not being protected by the Yankees for the upcoming Rule 5 draft. 

He seemed to do well last year in AA and AAA with more good outings than bad ones.  But haven't read any reports calling him an imminent callup so no idea if he'd tempt a team to pick him and keep him in the majors all year.

I think he gets picked up, probably by a cost-conscious, sub-.500 team. He has good command, four pitches. #4 or #5 starter, long reliever, strong slider. 

There were 83 total selections last year, most since 2004. He's a second round pick, the Yankees lost five players last year.
