Red Sox announce chief baseball officer Chaim Bloom has been fired

The Red Sox announced on Thursday that the team has “parted ways” with chief baseball officer Chaim Bloom.

Bloom, 40, was informed of the decision by team ownership after spending nearly four seasons in his role.

“While parting ways is not taken lightly, today signals a new direction for our club,” Red Sox principal owner John Henry said in a team statement. “Our organization has significant expectations on the field and while Chaim’s efforts in revitalizing our baseball infrastructure have helped set the stage for the future, we will today begin a search for new leadership.
