I know injuries can always happen and the Padres should also be tough, but it feels like they could just send the Dodgers the 2021 trophy now. Must be a nice feeling to be part of that fan base.
Meanwhile in Cincinnati, where $15 million is too much for a proven shortstop......
If Reds made an offer it was probably about $100 million short.

Grats to Bauer. Although he didn't have longevity with the franchise, his Cy Young puts him on my list of best pitchers to wear a Reds uniform.

That, but also a pretty aggressive floor too. Otherwise a team like the Reds would never try to sign Bauer, no matter how much lower this salary is.Originally Posted by Musketeer22

On the bright side, that video was extremely obnoxious and on a personal level, I’m glad to don’t have to ignore what a dbag Trevor is to enjoy him as a player on my favorite team at this point.

Tampa is about to play Kansas City in the Super Bowl.
It’s not “most pro sports.” It’s baseball.

Something to keep in mind..our #30 and #35 draft picks can be traded..

This is funny for Mets reasons.
I'm not a system player. I am a system.

I like what he does with social media, in general. Some of his behind the scenes videos from last year were really interesting.
I just wish someone who isn't Trevor Bauer would do things like that.

Between this and their new owner everyone loved for 5 minutes before getting pantsed by the GameStop business, they’ve been having a much more characteristically “lol Mets” last week or so.

He managed to play cool as a Red. I imagine there’s a pretty good chance he would’ve lost that restraint at some point though given that we only had him for like a year and change.
Honestly I was surprised reading comments on Bauer FA articles, like 95% of them were calling him overrated, only at the top because its a down market for SPs, only got here because of a season only facing the central etc. etc. etc. Part of me thinks none of them really watched him pitch but I realize that its probably ultimately just because they dislike his antics.
REDREAD (02-05-2021)
Maybe they watched him pitch in any season other than 2020?
Can't really say that about 2018
Was he $40MM per year good in 2018, Rojo Rijo?
