All in all, it was a pretty good day for the Red Sox and Chaim Bloom as they traded arbitration numbers with the qualified players and had most of them accepted. With seven total players eligible for arbitration it was a tall task to make offers that would please them all. I said it was a pretty good day, not a great day, as Boston was only able to sign five of the seven intended players.
Eduardo Rodriguez was one of the two members of the roster that has yet to accept an offer and will most likely head to an arbitration trial.
