Yes, but he could rack up a few more wins in the pen too.
I think people don't give Bloom enough credit.
Some people give him too much credit. Some people don't give him enough credit.
I think he gets the right amount of credit when you average it out.
Nah. Nobody gives him too much credit.
Disagree.
Just because I think Bloom deserves more credit, how good of a pickup did Schwarber end up being?
Not including the postseason, he has 161 wRC+ and 1.4 fWAR in 41 games with the Sox. Not to mention the intangible effect he has on the plate discipline of some of our other hitters.
Bloom was also bashed for not picking up pen help and then crucified when Robles and Davis struggled early on.
His post deadline additions of Iggy & Shaw were also masterful.
When you say it's gonna happen now
When exactly do you mean?
With the exception of a bad inning tonight all of Blooms deadline acquisitions have been great.
He also acquired these players for peanuts compared to what the opposition paid.
Chalk it up for another loss to the armchair instant gratification G.M.
...and Robles has been one our best RP'er through crunch time, until tonight.

You can’t argue with the results, but Robles and Davis stink.
The King of TalkSox has Spoken.
If they do, Sale stinks a whole lot more. He did his level best to give away two crucial games.
Just lucky, that's all.
I'm darned if I can see any plate discipline by the Sox, but agree Schwarber has been a great asset.
