Boston Red Sox fans are understandably none too happy with President of Baseball Operations Chaim Bloom.
Since he took over the team, the Red Sox have lost a number of solid homegrown players.
Bloom has traded away Mookie Betts, Christian Vazquez, and Andrew Benintendi.
He also recently let Xander Bogaerts walk in free agency.
So naturally, because of that, he has found himself in the crosshairs of the fans.
On Twitter, an MLB analyst tweeted a screenshot of a graphic shown on NBC Boston, which detailed everything that has transpired with the Red Sox ever since Bloom took over as president of baseball operations.

Bloom Not Popular In Boston
Bloom is obviously not very popular in Boston.
Not a lot has gone right for the team since he took over.
The team made a surprise run to the ALCS in 2021, but have missed the postseason twice in Bloom’s three-year tenure.
Being unable to retain Bogaerts may in fact be the final straw for the Red Sox and their fans.
While Trevor Story can take over at shortstop, he didn’t exactly set the world on fire in his first season with the Red Sox, hitting just .238 during the regular season.
Boston finished in last place in the American League East with a 78-84 record.
Though the Sox signed Masataka Yoshida and Kenley Jansen, the loss of Bogaerts is one that fans will not soon forget.
The City of Boston is frustrated with Bloom and likely won’t be satisfied until some change takes place.
