Probably just wanted to prevent pitching from derailing another season for the Red Sox. Also probably didn't need to make a deal for Hill but more infield depth is good.
Main worry people had when the Red Sox hired Dombrowski was him gutting the farm system that was surprisngly pretty good the past few years just for quick fixes. People still had a bad taste from when Cherrington and Epstein would gut the farm with bad deals.
