Was just reading an article about how deceptive Trevor Bauer's pitches are. He definitely seems like a smart guy who is passionate about constantly improving.
I can only imagine how relieved he is to be out of Cincinnati...

He loved it here. Cy Young winner.
Dude is a machine. He's fun to watch pitch. Crazy spin rates. The bite on his curve is nasty.

Then why wouldn't you guys pay him nothing???
Here's the article btw:

Trevor Bauer is an arch-deceiver, capable of elite trickery on baseball's biggest stage. This is a look inside his mind.

He got a 3 yr $102 million contract from LA.Then why wouldn't you guys pay him nothing???

Reds gave him a qualifying offer - he declined it. Reds get an extra 1st round pick this summer for losing him.

Got it.
He’s the worst announcer in baseball.
Total dork who was gifted that job. Terrible voice
Hold on.
I’ve been in England for many years and have seen very little baseball, however, I’m still very intelligent.
Is this ohtani guy hitting homeruns and throwing 100 mph with a low era?
Or am I really drunk?

So happy about this, it’s an absolute wonder
He pitched one inning for them last season before getting injured and being out for the year.
He’s a yank off
He's a winner with a no-no now.
He's a beast.
MLB single-season record is 7.
There's still a lot of season left
I think we hit double digits.There's still a lot of season left
Could be. I just hope MLB doesn't try to mess with the game on the off season to make it more hitter friendly because dingers sell tickets.
I think they move the mound back.
Although the shit hitting has more to do with a focus on HRs and launch angle than it does with pitching being any better than in year's past. Hitters don't give a shit if they strikeout anymore.
Chicks dig the long ball.
That's exactly what I don't want to happen.
Same.
But i think that's the easiest "fix"
There's also some scuttlebutt about lowering the mound.
The Atlantic League is trying it out this year. They moved the mound back 12".
They are also using automated ball/strike tech.
And a modified DH - where the DH is in effect until the starting pitcher exits, after that the relief pitchers either hit for themselves or are pinch hit for.

I'd actually be for a the automated pitch call. Umps are too inconsistent. Boo to the rest of that.
I like the auto ump as well.
As a NL fan, I'm not a huge fan of the DH but I know it's going to be a thing. But what they are proposing doesn't help. The NL strategy of planning around a pitcher will still be gone. Relievers never hit anyway.
