Trevor Andrew Bauer[1] (born January 17, 1991) is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Diablos Rojos del México of the Mexican League. He has previously played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Arizona Diamondbacks, Cleveland Indians, Cincinnati Reds and Los Angeles Dodgers and in Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) for the Yokohama DeNA BayStars.
After starring as a pitcher for three seasons at
Bauer clashed with his Diamondbacks teammates during the 2012 season. In December 2012, he was traded to the Cleveland Indians. He spent the first two seasons there retooling his pitching approach and repairing mechanics after a 2012 injury. By 2016, he had emerged as a regular force in the Indians'
A free agent after the 2020 season, Bauer signed a three-year contract with the Dodgers in February 2021. He led the league in both strikeouts and innings pitched through July 2 but spent the rest of the season on administrative leave imposed by MLB as they investigated sexual assault allegations made against him, which continued into the following season. On April 29, 2022, the league announced that Bauer would be suspended for 324 games as a result of their investigation, which was later reduced to 194 on appeal. The Dodgers released him on January 12, 2023, rather than restoring him to the active roster. Following this, Bauer signed with the BayStars.
In addition to baseball, Trevor Bauer owns a media company called Momentum Films, centered around creating fun and engaging content on YouTube, focusing primarily on the sport of baseball.[2][3][4]
Early life
Bauer was born on January 17, 1991, in
College career
After graduating from high school, Bauer attended the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to study mechanical engineering. There, he joined the UCLA Bruins baseball team in the same class as Gerrit Cole. The two formed a rivalry that began, according to Bauer, when Cole told him that he had "no future in baseball".[5] At the end of their freshman season in 2009, Bauer led the team with nine wins, a 2.99 ERA. and 105+1⁄3 innings pitched, also getting named the Pac-10 Conference Baseball Newcomer of the Year.[8] That summer, he played for the USA Baseball Collegiate National Team, going 1–1 with a 4.67 ERA in five games, three of which were starts, and striking out 24 batters in 17+1⁄3 innings.[9]
Cole and Bauer combined in 2010 to push the Bruins to a 10–0 start, the best record to begin the season since the school started keeping track in the 1950s. Bauer was 2–0 with a 2.45 ERA in those first 10 games, and he and Cole combined for 49 strikeouts in 32+2⁄3 innings.[10] The Bruins ultimately built a 22-game winning streak before April 3, when the Stanford Cardinal were able to capitalize on a fifth-inning error by the UCLA shortstop, as Stanford defeated UCLA 8–4, giving Bauer his first loss in over a year.[11] UCLA continued to dominate in the postseason, with Bauer taking the win in a 10–3 rout of Texas Christian to lead UCLA to its first ever College World Series Championship Series.[12] South Carolina swept UCLA in the best-of-three series to win the championship.[13]
Bauer set a number of UCLA records as a junior in 2011. On March 26, he struck out his 329th college batter in a

Bauer entered the 2012 season as the Diamondbacks' top-rated
Arizona Diamondbacks (2012)
On June 27, 2012, the Diamondbacks called Bauer up from Reno in order to replace an injured Joe Saunders. He was scheduled to start the next day, becoming the first member of the 2011 draft class to make his MLB debut.[28] Although the Diamondbacks defeated the Atlanta Braves 3–2, Bauer earned a no-decision in his major league debut, pitching four innings before suffering a groin strain that required him to leave the mound.[29] He picked up his first win on July 8, holding the Los Angeles Dodgers to six scoreless innings as the Diamondbacks ultimately won 7–1.[30] After four major league starts, during which Bauer went 1–2 with a 6.06 ERA, he was sent back down to Reno, where he was shut down for a period of two weeks in order to preserve his health during his first full season of professional baseball.[31] He finished the season there, helping the Aces reach their first Pacific Coast League and Triple-A baseball championships. In the championship game against the Pawtucket Red Sox of the International League, Bauer took another no decision as he allowed two runs in 4+2⁄3 innings.[32] In 14 total starts for Reno, Bauer posted a 5–1 record and a 2.85 ERA, striking out 97 batters in 82 innings.[24]
Cleveland Indians (2013–2019)
2013–14
On December 11, 2012, Bauer was part of a three-team, nine-player trade between Arizona, the
Bauer began retooling his pitching delivery after the 2012 season, and entered spring training with the Indians with the intention of "overwrit[ing] eight to 10 years of neuromuscular programming".[37] He was not named to the Indians' 2013 opening day roster, instead making up part of the starting rotation for the Triple-A Columbus Clippers.[38] He was recalled on April 6 for a game against the Tampa Bay Rays, giving up a career-high seven walks in a 6–0 loss. Bauer's difficulties with fastball command carried through the season, and when MLB rosters expanded from 25 to 40 in September, Bauer was not included among the additional 15.[39] He started four major league games that season, posting a 1–2 record and a 5.29 ERA while striking out 11 batters in 17 innings.[40] In his 22 starts for Columbus, meanwhile, Bauer was 6–7 with an ERA of 4.15. He continued to work on his pitching mechanics during the 2013–14 offseason, blaming his poor performance on bad techniques that he had picked up after suffering his groin injury in Arizona.[41]
The Indians optioned Bauer to Columbus at the start of the 2014 season, a decision that they hoped would allow him to become more comfortable pitching in the organization.[39] He received his first call-up of the season on April 8, starting in the second game of a doubleheader against the San Diego Padres.[42] He took the loss in that game despite recording eight strikeouts, but continued to progress in Columbus.[43] On May 20, Bauer received his second call-up of the season, replacing Danny Salazar for a start against Detroit Tigers ace and Cy Young Award winner Justin Verlander. Bauer took the win, giving up only two runs in seven innings of the 6–2 victory.[44] The biggest improvement of Bauer's season was in limiting walks: by June 24, he had lowered his rate of bases on balls per nine innings pitched (BB/9) to 3.4, an improvement over his 8.5 BB/9 during the previous season that he attributed to ironing out his mechanics.[45] Bauer made 26 major league starts in 2014, going 5–8 with a 4.18 ERA and striking out 143 batters in 153 innings.[40]
2015–16
Bauer was named to the Indians' opening day roster for the
Despite a strong spring training run, including six scoreless innings in his final Cactus League start, the Indians assigned Bauer to the bullpen to begin the
Bauer started Games 2 and 5 of the 2016 World Series, losing both games and posting a 5.40 World Series ERA.[59] The Indians lost a very competitive series in seven games; the series ended in extra innings of the final game.[60]
2017–19
On January 12, 2017, Bauer agreed to a one-year, $3.55 million contract with the Indians, twice as much as he had earned the prior season.
During the 2017–18 offseason, Bauer estimated that he had pitched a total of 40 practice innings with UCLA alumni in order to present a new
In his first two starts of the
Cincinnati Reds (2019–2020)
On July 31, 2019, the Cincinnati Reds acquired Bauer in a three-team trade with the Indians and the San Diego Padres. Cleveland acquired Yasiel Puig and Scott Moss from Cincinnati and Franmil Reyes, Logan Allen, and Victor Nova from San Diego, while the Reds sent prospect Taylor Trammell to the Padres.[77] Bauer struggled in his team debut, lasting only 4+2⁄3 innings while allowing three runs on seven hits, walking three batters, and hitting another batter with a pitch.[78] He followed a difficult first start with a dominant appearance over the Chicago Cubs, striking out 11 batters as Cincinnati won 5–2.[79] Bauer remained an inconsistent force in the Reds' starting rotation: in his first 10 starts with the new team, he posted a 2–5 record with a 6.39 ERA and 12 home runs. In five of those first ten starts, he allowed five or more earned runs. Bauer was frustrated with his own performance, referring to the back half of the season as "one step forward, two steps back".[80] He ultimately went 11–13 for the season in 34 starts between Cleveland and Cincinnati, posting a 4.48 ERA and striking out 253 batters in 213 innings.[40]
Bauer avoided arbitration prior to the
Los Angeles Dodgers (2021)
After becoming a free agent, Bauer courted offers from a number of MLB teams, ultimately turning down a deal from the New York Mets in order to sign with the Los Angeles Dodgers on February 5, 2021.[88] The Dodgers signed Bauer to a three-year, $102 million contract, with opt-out options after the 2021 and 2022 MLB seasons.[89] Some concerns had been raised among the Mets over Bauer's social media use, including two incidents in which women accused Bauer of harassing them online.[90] The Dodgers were aware of Bauer's abrasive reputation, but were willing to overlook it in favor of his pitching ability, with Mookie Betts telling the Los Angeles Times, "He is who he is. You know what you're getting and so I don't really worry about it. It doesn't bother me."[91]
On July 2, 2021, MLB placed Bauer on administrative leave while an internal investigation was opened into sexual assault allegations that had been made against him.[92] At the time that the allegations were made public, Bauer had an 8–5 record and a 2.59 ERA in 17 starts, and he led MLB with 107+2⁄3 innings pitched and 137 strikeouts.[93] On September 10, MLB and the players union agreed to extend Bauer's leave through the remainder of the 2021 season. Previously, the extensions had been made on a week-by-week basis.[94]
MLB's investigation into Bauer was suspended due to the
On January 6, 2023, the Dodgers designated Bauer for assignment.[101][98] He was officially released on January 12.[102]
Yokohama DeNA BayStars
On March 13, 2023, Bauer agreed to an incentive-laden one-year, $4 million contract with the
Diablos Rojos del México
On March 18, 2024, Bauer announced that he would start the season by pitching in six games for the Diablos Rojos del México of the Mexican League.[108]
Pitching style
Bauer makes a point of having as vast a pitching repertoire as possible. As a prospect in 2012, he told reporters, "The more pitches that I have, that have different speeds and move differently, the more confusion it creates for the hitter."
Ever since his rookie season with Arizona,

After receiving a higher salary than expected during an arbitration hearing in 2018, Bauer launched a charity campaign called "69 Days of Giving", where he promised to donate an exact amount of US$420.69 to 68 charities selected by his fans. The final charity, decided by Bauer, would receive a donation of US$69,420.69.

Assault allegations
In June 2021, Bauer was placed on administrative leave and investigated by the Pasadena Police Department for the alleged assault of a San Diego woman earlier that year.[136] In response to the allegations, the Dodgers removed Bauer's merchandise from their team store.[137] He remained under investigation by MLB and police through the 2021 season[138] but the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office elected not to file criminal charges, citing a lack of evidence.[139] Bauer sued the woman for defamation, and she filed a counterclaim alleging sexual battery. Both suits were settled in 2023 with no money changing hands and neither party admitting any wrongdoing, and Bauer released a video that October saying that he was "happy to be moving on with [his] life".[140][141]
While Bauer was under investigation in 2021, The Washington Post uncovered court records showing that a separate woman from Ohio had sought a temporary order of protection in June 2020.[142] A third woman also accused Bauer of sexual assault in 2022 and 2023.[143] Bauer denied all of these allegations.[144] In March 2022, Bauer filed defamation lawsuits against Deadspin, The Athletic, Deadspin editor Chris Baud, and former Athletic reporter Molly Knight.[145] A federal judge in New York dismissed the suits against Deadspin and Baud in March 2023,[146] and Bauer dropped his case against The Athletic three months later.[147]
