I'd still like to see Chaim Bloom get a shot.
He left the Red Sox a gold mine. You should check out their Worcester Triple-A team with Roman Anthony, Kyle Teel, Kristian Campbell, Marcelo Mayer. It's absolutely loaded. Check out Campbell, a fourth round pick out of Georgia Tech that is reminding me of Mookie Betts-lite.
Like St. Louis with Witt, Boston's John Henry has gone cheap, but Bloom still managed to put together a strong player development core. I haven't even mentioned their big league young studs like Triston Casas, Wilyer Abreu, Ceddanne Rafaela.
