Dave Dombrowski was hired as president of baseball operations for the Boston Red Sox to deliver a championship. And he did. But now, Dombrowski is gone because of what transpired in order to get that World Series ring.
Based off of Dombrowski’s track-record, it should be no surprise that he handed out large contracts and dried up a once fertile farm system. Look at the Detroit Tigers, that is what the Red Sox would end up as if Dombrowski remained. With the firing of Dombrowski and hiring of Chaim Bloom, the Red Sox will look to build sustained success through fewer large contracts and deepening a shallow farm system.
