This is exactly bang on. John Henry wants to win without paying long term salaries. He figured that Bloom came from Tampa who has been able to pull this off but he missed the fact that all Bloom actually did was shine Friedman's shoes. Henry has forbid Bloom from big spending and wants him to build from the farm. But this Bloom's 4th year here now and it has been a .500 era with nothing showing me things will be better in 2024. We can moan all we want about Sale, Paxton, Kluber but when they are gone who is going to fill in? A rotation of Whitlock, Bello, Crawford, Pivetta and whatever other broken down SP Bloom brings in leads to another subpar season in my view. No pitching prospects are close to MLB ready.
