I think that Bloom will stay in the organization for the bullpen, or at least he should. We have so many young prospects looking for their turn in St. Louis. They should be checked out in Spring Training and see what shakes out. Afterall the targe is ’28/’29 not ’27. I’m thinking that Bloom sticks with that. What good will a couple of older relief pitchers do this year that will help in two/three years?
We have a bunch of AAA/AA pitchers that will need to be analyzed. Give them a look see how they perform in MLB.
