Around SBN: Raiders' GM Begins The Purge

Yankees Rule 5 Draft

The following are eligible rule 5 draft players in the Yankees system

According to Rob Neyer's Transaction Primer, these are the rules:

A player not on a team's Major League 40-man roster is eligible for the Rule 5 draft if: the player was 18 or younger when he first signed a pro contract and this is the fourth Rule 5 draft since he signed, OR if he was 19 or older when he first signed a pro contract and this is the third Rule 5 draft since he signed.

This comes out to signing at 18 or younger in 2004 or 19 or older in 2005:

Star-divide

AAA Scranton Wilkes Barre
Eric Duncan
Steven White

AA Trenton
(?) Jeffrey Marquez
Marcos Vechionacci

A+ Tampa
Tim Battle

These are the ones I am sure about...are there any others?  Who should be protected on the 40-man here?

My votes go to Vech, Duncan, and White, and to dump Wright, DeSalvo, and Villone

Vechionacci
Always liked him. It'd be great to see him on the Orioles one day. However, out of the poll, I voted for Marquez.

overlord is right
I did a diary on this a few months ago. White is the only one eligible, and I'm sure he'll be protected.
