    For a minute I wondered if Bauer was savvy enough to do something this stupid to ensure he doesn't get traded.

    Then I remembered this is the guy who almost chopped off his finger with a drone during the playoffs and displays the social skills of a junkyard dog.

    He might be the baseball's first Incel Cy Young winner in 2019.

    Biggest tool in a sport overflowing with them.

    Yeah, Cleveland should be pissed.

    It's no different from a heckling fan in the stadium. The woman's 2nd and 3rd tweets were pretty shitty, but that's pretty standard behavior from a fan. You gotta back off that.

    Wish I could insert the opposite of that OSU “I’m a man” tirade.

    Yes you do. I get crap from readers all the time. You have to shrug it off.

    You're a professional Major League Baseball player making stupid money and you're getting in a war of words with a 19 year old girl on Twitter.
    Boggles the mind.

    His first retort was fine. She chose to insult him, which wasn't very nice, but is standard fan behavior.

    It just feels more real, the insult, when it's written.

    So.....if the first time he goes out, blows a save, and someone goes on Twitter and tells him that he's a bum and should stick to playing with drones, is he going to get in a war with them too?
    My point being that the first time you do this, it shows people that it gets under your skin.
