Beck was outrighted to Triple-A Buffalo on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Beck has floated on and off 40-man rosters for the Blue Jays and Pirates during the offseason despite his superb numbers at Triple-A last season (1.31 ERA and 1.08 WHIP over 48 innings). He'll compete for a bullpen spot with the Blue Jays in spring training but is a safer bet to open the season with Buffalo.
