If you somehow missed the news, the Cincinnati Reds acquired right-handed pitcher Trevor Bauer from the Cleveland Indians last night. They dealt away Yasiel Puig, and prospects Taylor Trammell and Scott Moss. The San Diego Padres were also involved in the deal, moving Franmil Reyes, Logan Allen, and Victor Nova on their end to acquire Trammell in the deal.
With a deal like this, there are going to be some opinions. Trevor Bauer has been an inconsistent pitcher over the course of his career. In 2018 he was a Cy Young contender. In 2019 he’s been a borderline All-Star caliber pitcher.
