It's funny in a way. Before Kike signed for 10 mil he had to have a promise from Bloom that this year's team would be better. You can't make this shite up.
Another weak hitting RH batter probably won't be noticed and improving the middle defense would be a good thing. However, now that JH is running the franchise as a small market team, I doubt Bloom will spend 11 mil on that guy.
I'll say it for you. This is a weak SOX line-up, and saying Duvall wouldn't have made a difference in a one run game comes under the heading of Cora talk.
