The last 2 guys are 100% not being taken. The first two are slight maybes, but I doubt it. Wouldn't be shocked 8f the Sox add no one, as we might not even have a Rule 5 draft anyway.

I think they add William Bergolla. I'd be surprised by anyone else.

I saw it kicked around somewhere that it could be agreed on to do it before 12/1. I haven't really seen that they have so at this point, I'm assuming it wouldn't be. I guess you still have to prep like it is going to happen and protect guys though just in case it does.

The Sox don’t have a ton of tough Rule 5 decisions because they have been so poor in the international arena. They don’t have a bunch of young guys running out of eligibility. I can imagine more of a crunch when some of their HS draftees like Boughton get to the bubble. High picks like Carlson, Fauske, Thome, and Prosek will obviously be protected unless they’re disasters, which unfortunately can happen.
