The Cardinals announced that they have hired Chaim Bloom as an advisor to president of baseball operations John Mozeliak. Katie Woo of The Athletic reported the hiring prior to the official club announcement.

Mozeliak released a statement in regards to the hiring.

“It will be good to get an outside perspective of our organization from someone who is as well-respected as Chaim.  Having a fresh set of eyes on all aspects of our baseball operations should be helpful.”

Bloom most recently served as Chief Baseball Officer for the Boston Red Sox from 2019 through 2023.
