Many years ago I wanted Friedman running this team but since it couldn't be done, Bloom was a fine and encouraging option in my book.
Friedman has been executing very well in both worlds, spending wisely the money and developing and trading LAD farm all-in-all. Friedman has made LAD a serious contender team year after year since he arrived.
I expect Bloom doing nothing but that otherwise would be a failure moving forward. Our budget is not far from LA's, so no excuses.
Said that, I know the heat is at top right now mostly since some additions haven't panned out well, but we have to understand that he inherited a clogged team which should be with a lot of flexibility begging next year.
From 2023 he has to start delivering results. It's going to be his 4th year. As I said, this team should take LAD model and Bloom is on paper the guy who has the acumen to do that.
By now, it's a plain C.
