If you want depth, start here

It's an attitude that is cliche atthis point but still can't help but say that I think last year Rick came face to face with the realization that he is not only not as good at this as he thought, but that he's incapable of it. This year is them just retreating into the fetal position as everyone waits for everyone else in the org to end it or voluntarily leave.

I think we need a satirist cartoonist to depict the Sox or Hahn in the fetal position in the womb sucking their thumb with a thought bubble that says "It's real cozy in here."

He needs to be holding onto his 4 degrees too.

Dealing with the Rays' Rule 5 guys won't help organizational depth.  If they could get a major league pitcher or OF out of it (worthy of the non-Rule 5 prospect they will have to send in return), then fine.  That would require the Sox org. actually having knowledge of the Rays' system, which is a dubious assumption. 
The Sox certainly don't have a Rule 5 crunch.  There are at least 5 guys on there who you would never keep if it meant exposing a real prospect,  including a couple that probably shouldn't be on there at all regardless of the circumstances.    There are also 9 infielders on the roster; 11 if you include Sheets and Vaughn.   There are also 6 only OFs,  only 2 of which can actually play OF (Engel and Robert); Eloy is a DH,  Sheets and Vaughn are infielders and the 6th is an org. guy.
