What?! That’s Chaim Bloom’s music! The Red Sox have made a surprising move in the late hours, striking a deal with the St. Louis Cardinals that has a big impact from their Chief Baseball Officer, Chaim Bloom.
According to sources, the Red Sox have acquired reliever Hansel Robles and cash considerations from the Cardinals in exchange for minor league pitcher Zach Bryant. This move comes as a surprise, as earlier reports suggested the Red Sox were backing off the trade market due to high prices.
The Red Sox have been linked to several relievers in trade rumors over the past 72 hours, but it seems they have found their target in Robles. This move shows their determination to strengthen their bullpen for their push towards the AL Wild Card spot.

Red Sox Acquire Steven Matz in Late-Night Trade with Cardinals
Attention all Red Sox fans! In a surprising move, the Boston Red Sox have acquired left-handed reliever Steven Matz from the St. Louis Cardinals. This trade confirms the Red Sox’s intentions to strengthen their bullpen for their push towards the AL Wild Card.
Reports earlier in the day suggested that the Red Sox were backing off the trade market due to high prices. However, this deal shows that they are still actively seeking to improve their team.
Matz, who previously played for the Toronto Blue Jays, has transitioned to a full-time relief role this season and has been performing well. With a 3.44 ERA, 2.88 FIP, and 1.18 WHIP in 55 innings, he brings a strong presence to the Red Sox bullpen.
The trade also raised some eyebrows among Red Sox fans when it was revealed that the team had sent their No. 17 prospect, Blaze Jordan, to the Cardinals as compensation. Jordan, a former third-round draft pick, has been excelling in the minor leagues and was recently promoted to Triple-A.
It’s worth noting that the Cardinals’ front office now includes Chaim Bloom, who was previously with the Red Sox and was involved in the infamous Mookie Betts trade. This adds an interesting dynamic to the trade and raises questions about the Red Sox’s decision to part with Jordan.
However, Red Sox fans have learned to trust Craig Breslow, the team’s current front office member, when it comes to trades. Despite being scapegoated during his time in Boston, Breslow’s trades have been paying off, including the Rafael Devers trade. With the Red Sox currently in striking distance of the top of the AL East, let’s hope that more impactful deals are on the way tomorrow.
