Matt Barnes took a swipe at Chaim Bloom yesterday when talking to Pete Abraham, which has led reputable websites like this one to take shots at him:
New Marlins reliever Matt Barnes: “I’m not mad and I don’t have any animosity toward the Red Sox organization because that organization represents so much more than who’s currently running it. The people at the top were so great to me.”

My unpopular yet correct opinion is that Barnes has every right to hold Bloom’s obvious five-year rebuild against him, no matter what contract Barnes ended up earning or how poorly he pitched afterward.
