Trevor Bauer, douchebag

Bauer, who has gone 1-2 with the Reds in four starts with a 5.87 ERA, went on Fox Sports Ohio and in an interview stated that he is much happier in Cincinnati, and doesn’t miss Cleveland.

The 28-year-old who went 9-8 with the Indians this year, seemed to not only take a shot at his former city where he played, but also the Tribe coaching staff.

“The information is great here, the coaching staff is great here, overall I am a whole lot happier here than I was,” Bauer said.

“Sometimes you don’t realize how unhappy you are in a situation until you are out of it, just kind of day-to-day life, miss some of my teammates and stuff, but overall, don’t really miss a whole lot about Cleveland.”

It's so easy to simply say "I'm thrilled to be playing in Cincinnati," and leave it at that.

Bauer was hammered by Pittsburgh today, giving up 8 runs in 3 innings.

I’ve always been a fan. I’ve also always suspected he might have a touch of Asperger’s going on. I get what he’s trying to say, I’ve had to leave situations before that I thought I loved till I was away from them. I get that. But he didn’t have to say it. That part I don’t agree with.

He obviously has a lack of social intuition and skills for whatever reason. What made me a fan was seeing and reading about how he worked to get past a lot of that while he was in Cleveland.

That said, he had his moments ..... but I wasn't unhappy to get rid of him.

Plus I do believe he's a Trump lover, if that makes any difference.

Sure it's just trade jitters. But getting him off the team was the right thing. He'd been wanting out for a long time.
