Depth for INF as halos trade Rengifo in David Price deal. Minasian likes to trade at night around 930.

So at the same time you're supposed to take your meds?

As mentioned above, Kean Wong. Also, there's Jose Rojas. Plus Ibandel Isabel (1B) and Mitch Nay (1B/3B) as options to fill out the AAA infield.

That's right! Kean can hit. Rojas was picked in the minor league phase of the rule 5 start if I'm not mistaken.

Rojas did not get selected. He’s on the Bees  Roster.

They also signed that Ibanden Isabel, and have Livan Soto, Kevan Maitan at AAA.

I have a feeling that some of the backup positions in Anaheim aren’t settled. They may keep two of Barretto, Rengifo, Thaiss, and Robert in the bigs and they may cut some of the AAA depth or send some of it to AA.

I get the feeling the AAA roster is acting as more of a holding tank for prospects at this point. As entertaining as it would be to see power hitters like Maitan and Gareth Morgan in AAA, I am not sure there are spots available. 

As you said, some of that depth will head down to AA or even Advanced A Ball in Tri-City.
