I have no problem with the Price move. It is the Betts Verdugo aspect of the trade that bothers me. Let's not kid
ourselves it was the Betts Verdugo aspects of the deal that were the key pieces for both teams. If Verdugo ends up spending too much time injured then Bloom will look like a blooming fool.
Other than the salary dump, it is premature to say whether Bloom did well or not. Remember Verdugo is coming off an jury. It remains to be seen if he plays an entire season injury free or how well he does when he does play.
Depends what you call good. "Even with the large boost in ratings, the Rays still only had the 16th best ratings in the league." Tampa Bay Business Journal Oct 16, 2019
