Trevor Bauer fires back at critic calling him ‘petulant child,’ claims influence over "largest baseball audience in the world"

Trevor Bauer continues to draw attention of baseball fans despite being away from the limelight of MLB for almost 3 years. Bauer has always found a way to stay in the news. Due to his controversial career, the Diablos Rojos star developed several critiques.

It's common to find critiques calling out Bauer either on his performance or for what he does off the field. A columnist with an X account named "Not Gaetti" called Bauer a 'petulant child' for throwing a camera to the center field when former MLB manager Terry Francona approached him to keep it away.

While there is no clip of Francona approaching Bauer, the critique has made a strong claim. Here's a look at the post from Not Gaetti on X.

The former Dodgers star lashed out at his critique with a post asking his fans if he should stop making content from the game for the viewers.

"What do you guys think? Is my content good for baseball or bad for baseball? Should the ‘petulant child’ with the largest baseball audience in the world put the camera down or keep making content for the people and trying to grow the game?" Bauer posted on X.

Bauer got a huge response from fans, as several supported the pitcher in continuing to do what he felt was best. It's not the first time Bauer has received such comments, and it's not the first time he's fired back at his critiques.

Trevor Bauer thanks the League for being welcomed into the Mexican Baseball Hall of Fame

Trevor Bauer continues to achieve milestones in the Mexican League. Bauer thanked the league for welcoming him into the Mexican Baseball Hall of Fame. Bauer was recognized for his achievements in 2024, especially for his record-setting 19-strikeout game against the Guerreros de Oaxaca in June.

The ball used for his 19-strikeout game will be displayed in Monterrey, Mexico.

“You never think that one of your items is going to end up in the Hall of Fame, so it’s a tremendous honor to have the ball stay here. You never know where baseball is going to take you," Bauer said.

While critics continue to make their comments, Bauer continues to play for Diablos Rojos and hopes to find his way back to the MLB.
