I am going to disagree.. contending teams give up talent for ace pitchers at the deadline all the time. Trevor Bauer could have been this year's Randy Johnson for some team.
I have no problem with arguing the "go for it" as I said early, but let's not pretend that there was no market for Bauer if he was available. An ace is even more valuable in expanded playoffs. I know I Won't be able to convince you of that, so I will move on.

If the Reds make it past a round of playoff. I'll admit that I'm wrong.
I'm glad the Reds won 6 in a row. I admit, I didn't think they could do that, even against the Pirates.
It was a pleasant surprise.
That said, they are still on the bubble. They need to keep winning.

I think it's safe to say no, he shouldn't have been dealt.

Trevor Bauer is going to win a Cy Young ... and, yes, I'm pretty excited about that.

Trevor Bauer - Cincinnati Reds - Cy Young 2020
Hell yeah
I think I teared up during the 7th tonight. Just beautiful pitching.

Not many Reds I've wanted to see re-signed over the years more than Bauer, but alas, I'm guessing he's priced himself outta Cincy.
Maybe if he sticks to his year-to-year guns, the Reds can splurge and keep him around another season. I think it would be worth it for his clubhouse presence and affect on young pitchers alone. Definitely will be QO'd.

Only once have both Cy winners come from teams in the same state: 1974 (Hunter/Marshall).
