I think the lineups we see for the next couple of weeks will be bizarre.  It looks like Sox will have to DFA a lot of regulars and bench at Boston and Wooster to assign other players to the 40 man.

For example Pawlecki is one that got caught up in it to make room for Rafaela the future CF/LF now at Portland.  He and a number of our prized farmhands that come under the Rule 5 this year and need to be protected.

Plawecki was going to be a FA at the end of the season anyway. With McGuire and Wong, the Sox didn't need a 3rd catcher. He might get picked up by some team that needs an experienced catcher for a post-season run.
