@Seels did not think Bloom made a single decent acquisition. According to him, every deal Chaim did was atrocious and a joke. In his opinion, Chaim Bloom was the worst Baseball Ops/GM in Red Sox history in the non Pinky Higgins division I happen to vehemently disagree with that opinion.
I happen to think Abreu and Valdez for two months of Vazquez will turn out to be one of his better deals. McGuire for the corpse of Diekman is probably a close second though. Despite his faults, Nick Pivetta has been very useful the past few years and was integral to the 2021 team. Overall, I think Bloom did more good than bad and in a few years( perhaps as soon as next year) his reign will be seen in a more positive light.
