There are only 780 players on the 26 man. 390 are pitchers. So for decades we only operated in the other 390 pool of players, plus a minor amount of minors.

This is clear Bloom, expanding our oool of players, and one day, we will hit the big one.

Awesome.

Isn't Herrera an international FA? We did not draft him


Bloom is not any better than other GMs.

He very much is better than most in terms of player/farm system development. This has been proven on multiple teams

Yup. Though I can't remember why he didn't end up signing.

Either way, I'm glad to see that we're finally showing some willingness to throw some money around in the Caribbean. Clearly, our strategy of loading on on guys in the middle of the pack wasn't working.

He had a degenerative eye condition. He was going to be one of, if not the top bonus that year and the Cards pulled it back at the last minute. (upset) off the DR youth baseball mafia and the Cardinals had been blacklisted ever since. I always wondered if we were really blacklisted all this time from it but as soon as we bring in a new front office team we get a top 10 guy. So I think the rumors were definitely true.
