Default Is this true?

I found this while I was looking for something else.

"Wash chicken thoroughly in cold water, Place the chicken in a bowl with
enough cold water to cover the chicken to which 2 or 3 Tablespoons of
baking soda have been added."Gets the barnyard (taste) out."
"Freshens the chicken." "
I have never done this but I don't know if there would be a disernable differenece.

"Place chicken again in a baking dish or bowl. Cover it with enough water
to cover the chicken and to which 3 or 4 teaspoons of table salt and 1/4
cup of granulated sugar have been added. Reasons: The salt helps remove
any blood still remaining in the chicken and also seasons it.?

To me this would be a weak brine but my question here is, why remove the blood?
