Maligned Bloom signing Trevor Story lighting it up

Post by Konstantinov »

Currently for Boston vs the Yankees in the playoffs.
Perhaps his Boston track record deserves re-evaluation.

Red Sox’ Trevor Story feels a ‘shared blame’ after Chaim Bloom’s firing
"We didn’t get the job done on the field."

Story just hit a home run. Maybe not.

that's what I'm saying. His Boston signings may have been better than originally thought. He may indeed have an eye for talent.

It would be like bemoaning the trade and signing a of a 30-year-old utility player to the following:

Tommy Edman signed a 5 year, $74,000,000 contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers, including $17,000,000 signing bonus, $74,000,000 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $14,800,000. In 2025, Edman will earn a base salary of $5,000,000 and a signing bonus of $17,000,000, while carrying a total salary of $8,400,000.



and then, an often injured player appearing in just 97 games and posting a .225 batting average, .274 on-base percentage and a .655 OPS (career low).
