Deals fall apart all of the time in MLB. I agree, but I’ll admit the way Not Steve Cishek “reported” at the deadline reeks of fraud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MackowiakYakYak Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 Dude becomes a moron when he talks outside his wheelhouse, but cancellation isn’t that much of a thing.

Timmy U Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 Every time Bauer opens his mouth, it makes me like Gerrit Cole a little bit more. Plenty of baseball players are Aubrey Huff/Jake Arrieta-style knuckleheads. If the Sox sign him, I'll suspend my loathing for the length of the contract, I guess. Can't make me like him, though.

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 (edited) 7 hours ago, Tony said: These are his quotes from the article: I want to win. I want to be with a team that has a winning culture. I want to be there in the playoffs. I want a chance at a World Series. That’s one thing that really drives me. I want a chance to pitch every fourth day instead of every fifth. That really drives me. Going along with that: how’s the medical staff? How’s the technology — the information that’s available on the coaching staff? What’s the culture of the organization like? Again, I think it comes back to I just want a chance to win every year. I want to be in a situation where I feel valued and I have the chance to conduct my career the way I want to conduct it. So, pitch every fourth day, and stuff like that. I want to challenge myself and have a chance to do those things. So if there’s a situation where it presents itself where it is a four-year or five-year deal, and I feel confident that’s going to be a situation that’s good for me, I would consider it. I do think that in order to do the things that I want to do, I think I’m going to have to take on a little more risk than normal in those long-term contracts. …I’m not afraid of the one-year deals. I’m not afraid of the longer deals. It’s just going to be a case-by-case basis, and we’ll see what the situations look like. That all seems.....reasonable. I don't feel the need to repeat my same argument and annoy everyone, so I'll leave this as the last time. Since Bauer was in college he has been a notorious dick head/unlikable me-first guy. I've also read, but never heard, that he was a dick head in high school too. I can tolerate a lot of things, but if Tito can't tolerate you then I likely couldn't tolerate you either. I don't for one second doubt his work ethic - Bauer is an incredibly self centered person and he wants to be the smartest and best so he puts in the work. It's great that Bauer said all those things... guess what, he was just on a team with a winning culture who was in the playoffs and he cut his hand playing with a drone costing them a World Series possibly, and then the within the next two years he pissed off Tito enough that they were done with him. Trevor Bauer cares about one person, Trevor Bauer. Edited September 19, 2020 by Look at Ray Ray Run 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
