The Chaim Bloom era is officially in full swing. With a self-imposed holiday deadline for another deal, the St. Louis Cardinals' new President of Baseball Operations held true to his word and made another splash on the trade market. After dealing Sonny Gray almost a month ago, Bloom got his old Boston rolodex out again and sent Willson Contreras to the Red Sox.
Right-hander Hunter Dobbins is the headliner in the package going back to St. Louis for Willson Contreras, sources tell ESPN. The Cardinals additionally will be receiving minor league arms in the deal.
