OK...? Even if it depth, it's still stupid.

Technically yes.
Here is the specific difference:
It is one thing to have good depth and another to have bad.
Any team can go out and get a bunch of washed up SP and call it depth, but it does not mean good/dependable depth.
The word depth is misused all the time in the sports world.

Actually we probably needed a pitcher in AAA.

Sometimes you just need bodies. There's a reason Rey Sanchez was in our system for 30 years.

Ramon Ortiz struck out 7 batters and only allowed 2 earned runs over 5.2 innings pitched yesterday
So basically we got him to start in AAA while Coleman is up here it looks like.
Though if he pitches like that and Coleman has another bad start there is a slim possibility he comes up.

Thats very slim.. It would take Coleman looking just completely and totally shitty for that to even be a chance.

Perhaps. I am really not a fan of Coleman's and not sure he is that much better than Ortiz. If he struggles no reason to throw him out there again.

Bruce Levine just said that he thinks Ramon Ortiz will start next Monday or so.

A pitcher who's pushing 40 and hasn't pitched at the major league level in three seasons...sweet. I'm riddled with excitement

He can't do a whole lot worse than Russell.

I see where you're coming from but I've seen worse pitching performances than Russell's and I'm sure you have too. I have concerns about a guy who hasn't pitched in three years, there's a reason for that. We'll just have to wait and see what happens.
