Bloom to bring fresh perspective to Cardinals' operations after mixed tenure with Red Sox

  • Chaim Bloom, former chief baseball officer of the Boston Red Sox, has been hired as an advisor to John Mozeliak, president of baseball operations for the St. Louis Cardinals.
  • Bloom's tenure with the Red Sox was marked by mixed results, with the team reaching the American League Championship Series in 2021 but finishing last in three of the last four seasons.
  • Prior to his time with the Red Sox, Bloom spent 15 years in the Tampa Bay Rays' baseball operations department, contributing to the team's development into a consistent contender.
  • The Cardinals, who had their first 90-plus loss season since 1990 in 2023, are looking to gain new perspectives and insights from Bloom's experience.
  • Bloom's role with the Cardinals is not yet fully defined, but it is believed he will provide an outside perspective on all aspects of the team's baseball operations.
