You don't like Bauer and your bias shows. Lots of people do tho
You put together a great video, and I loved it up until 14:27 I do not like who Trevor Bauer is off the field But at the drop of a hat it was Obi-wan vs Darth Maul I know you talked about personalities throughout the video, but I don't think it was given enough weight or final context to end the video sucking Gerrit-Cole's-home-life's dick
Old school raging ego vs. a new school raging ego
Pretty much what this video is about
This is just men ™️ the documentary
That's actually a great TL:DR for this, now I think about it
Love to see it
Well said lmao
“Both in the forefront of the sticky stuff movement” Bro Bauer was extremely anti sticky stuff and very public about it, Cole was pro sticky stuff and more or less confessed to using it aggressively in with his sus interview answer
@Bobby Knight 100%. Trevor didn't do anything wrong IMO, he gave her what she asked for and wanted.
@@sthao1733 You're not wrong.
So many Bauer simps in any video related to him lol
Meanwhile old school staffers on MLB teams hate bauer for using science and stats in his training. They praise cole for cheating while they hate bauer for showing them how a pitcher trains when they do not cheat. Nearly all the "hate" for bauer stems from team staffers hating on bauer rather than admitting they personally stagnated in modern training advancements.
@@_PatrickO all the hate to Bauer is that he’s a self-centered asshole lol nobody hates on his training regiment anymore since it’s actually effective
Bauer: "Not only are they cheating, I'll prove it by being a better cheater." Cole: "Bro, shut the fuck up."
lol so true
Bingo
If I could I'd give this all my thumbs and fingers up! Highly underrated comment.
Trev is a better person and a better pitcher
God: Guys..Guys....you're both fucking terrible
Cole bullied Bauer and I don't feel you highlighted that enough.
He was bullied in high school, college, and even in Arizona. Just because he was different. People can be A#1 aholes sometimes! To bully your own teammate because he works out differently than you! From what I've seen his workout routine works better for him than lifting weights and popping brews... Pitching IS more flexibility and less corn fed meat head.
@@thecman26if he didn’t get along with teammates in HS, college or the pros, maybe he’s part of the problem.
@@___________________. really? Huh... I guess all the vlogs must be staged with actors who look exactly like his teammates! That's quite a stretch!
@@thecman26 "Is Trevor Bauer out of touch? No, it's everyone that he's ever played with that's the problem!"
Lots of baseball players have a very smug and arrogant way that they carry themselves and I can see Cole being that type of guy. Then again, Bauer doesn’t get along with really any teammates and I can see him being the type of guy that gets pissed at other players because he doesn’t perceive them as caring as much
IMO they have more in common than people think (personality wise) and that’s why they don’t like each other. Both are arrogant about their craft and their pitching styles and hate the other because of that, Bauer hates Gerrit natural ability to pitch and Cole hates Trevor methodology to make a nobody and better pitcher than him (in college) once they got separated in the draft that beef slowed down a bit but they clearly are not friends… good content
dad?
Cole won with his 330 million. Bauer is banned from the MLB.
JK😢
its like why big boys usually arent friends unless theyre on the same offensive line, no one hates a fat person more than another fat person.
@@caterpillakilla"go to bed bitch"
I’m sure in another timeline these two are best buddies and are one of the best 1-2 punches in the league
Nah, everyone hates Trevor. Only guy who seemingly likes him is Mike Clevinger and given his character it’s not the best compliment to Trevor.
@@thelinedrive I agree with you on the Clevinger part but again theoretically in this alternate timeline maybe Bauer isn’t as big of a douche as our timeline so he doesn’t burn the same bridges in our timeline
@@thelinedrive I’m sure people within that Indians rotation, like Shane Bieber and Corey Kluber, have similarly decent views of Bauer, if not outright positive ones.
Is there a timeline in which Bauer doesn't torch everyone around him?
@@Gemnist98 theres no evidence they did anything but tolerate him
Bauer called out MLB on the stickey stuff and Cole hid from it.
But then used it 😂 so like
Used it openly as an example to provoke the MLB into action after they expressed they didn't give a fuck. He forced the MLB to give a fuck, hence the blackballing.
@@TheOtherBradBird I mean yeah but he still used it. I don’t have a problem with it but just saying. If you aren’t cheating you aren’t trying LMAO
He used it to prove a point. He never hid that he used it
Lol And now Cole is on the mound, and Bauer is brushing his hair making KZhead videos trying to strike out softball players.
Cole was the “alpha” and his ego was bruised when Bauer pitched better than him so he’s bitter. #moralofthestory
yeah ok lmao
Difference is Bauer was honest and Cole was slimy about it. I respect Bauer because of his honestly and bold approach. Cole strikes me as more of a corporate figure.
Bauer got tired of everyone else having the advantage and him playing by the rules, and called the MLB on it. I feel he is in Japan because he wants to be, and was getting $22 mil from the Dodgers either way, but if he doesn't come back to the MLB next year, we know he's blackballed because of that.
Coles going to the HoF and Bauer is a trash human being. But yeah “honest” 😂
@@KimP0612this comment is fucking stupid, Bauer got falsely accused of everything that he supposedly did and won every time and was one of the big factors to the new rule changes because of how many player backed him on it
@@KimP0612 If bauer was still in the league he would take that, he smoked Cole in college pitcher to pitcher
@@KimP0612okay explain trash cause bauer is clear now
Bauer was the better pitcher in college...and though Cole makes more money it's fairly close despite two contrasting styles. Hopefully Bauer gets back on the mound soon.
He’ll forever be in Japan. MLB probably has him on a black list 😂
i have more respect for TB as a pitcher after this video. Guy wasnt born with the same physicality but he made it work with his brain and people hate him partially because they dont understand the process and because he's different. i know he's also apparently pretty abrasive but damn getting treated like that in college and bullied a lot would do that to a guy lmao
Bauer is a joke
Bauer's insight and open-mindedness to alternative training and pitching styles is in sharp contrast to his closed-minded attitude towards women and basically anyone who disagrees with him.
That's why I laughed when I heard Bauer was born to throw hard when he wasn't.
Bauer is a disgrace to baseball and should never step foot on the mound in a major league game again
Bauer is a top 5 most interesting and important player in MLB history, but we live in a time of absolute cretinism. For example OP felt it necessary to show a tweet where Bauer implied it was silly to identify as something you're not, and this most obvious fact in the world is supposedly controversial. This guy revolutionized training by himself and MLB has no use for him, but from their PR you always hear about some gay minor leaguer from Nicaragua like anyone cares. MLB is so scummy I wouldn't put it past them to pay random skanks to slander Bauer.
Its funny that most elite pitchers now currently use the " Bauer Method" while warming up and training. Ohtani said in a recent interview recently he uses the "Bauer Metgod" along with many other elite pitchers.
Had no idea the Yankees drafted him in ‘08. Awesome video as always
He was a Yankees diehard, and even attended the 2000 World Series. Him joining them in 2020 was a dream come true.
I knew there was some draft issue, but I forgot what it was.
@@GeeEm1313 Scott Boras told him not to sign, that was
Cole bullied Trevor personally, and you didn't really highlight that. Also, not discussing Trevor's suspension and why he was suspended is a mistake imo. Leaving out some key details here.
Biggest issue with the video was showing which side of the fence he was on lol, kept mentioning the suspension without details of it being a bullshit claim and how he got blacklisted, and was anti-sticky-stuff and spoke out about cheating and exposed it frequently, bit of the opposite with Gerrit here.
@@KOHoxtonwhat’s up with the Bauer defense squad lol you guys are weird
@@rthraitor because we're fans of him and his entire life and career was derailed by a lie, that should bother you too. Man. It could happen to you just as easily.
MLB doesn't deserve to have Trevor back
I love the new content style! I've been watching compilations from you for years and it's awesome you're taking a new direction!
14:50 Holy shit that pitch was insane! As a Dodgers fan I honestly miss Trevor.
Bring back the tack! Pitcher gets to use tack on one hitter the entire game.
Thats pitch was NASTY
This is great man keep it up!!
Awesome video, I love this essay type content
The intro to the video was amazing. The music, writing and suspense all adding up to the bang was spectacular!!!
Hey dude I've been watching you for years, and your video quality, and the care you put into your videos is really fantastic. You're becoming one of my favorite baseball KZheadrs. You should do more beef type stuff too!
Have u seen baseball dosnt exist?
@@abrahamobaid7013 yes I also enjoy his stuff
I love the quality of your videos right now!
Bro easily one of the best KZhead videos I have ever watched pertaining to a sports documentary excellent narration
Very well-made and informative documentary. There was a rumor that they got into a locker room fight at UCLA which i wish you touched up on but this video is awesome, keep up the good work
This is INSANE. Never thought baseball strategy could be so captivating 😅 Really cool video
And now every MLB team uses science to help pitchers get better and flexibility training. Stuff Trevor was doing well before it became a thing and was mocked for it. He knew flexibilty would increase longevity and prevent injuries
Trevors work ethic is impressive. Can't wait to see him in Japan.
His videos from Japan were what got me interested in him. I think I like him because I'm a nerd, too.
I try to imagine Cole watching this and going “man I really don’t like that Trevor guy” I can’t picture it. I don’t think it’s a rivalry if one guy doesn’t care.
It's been a long time, and Cole is 33. I doubt he still feels the way he did when he was in college
It feels like I’m in the minority when praising Bauer, I like that he’s different while showing another side to the game
I'm with you
Some of Cleveland's pitchers have credited Bauer with their success. He's a good teammate if you embrace him for who he is.
The fact his career is seemingly over due to a false accusation is just sad.
Bauer is very likable although the negative campaign continues
@@Dr.Frankensteen I love how people instantly determine someone's guilt, and then when evidence is provided that proves their innocence, they ignore it. This is basically the entirety of baseball social media doing this to Trevor.
It's sad that no one will sign Trevor Bauer. He was unfairly accused, never charged, there's video evidence that the girl was lying, and still not even one of the 30 MLB teams will sign him. I strongly suspect that commissioner Manfred issued a silent edict with the owners not to sign Bauer under any circumstances, but good luck proving it. Japan might be his only option at this point if he wants to keep on pitching.
Go to sleep, Trevor.
how is he wrong?
@@bobmclennan1727 Hi im new to baseball. i stumbled upon it from watching videos of ball spin and have only recently been introduced to trevor bauer. all i know so far is that he got into legal trouble with allegations of sexual abuse or something? would you mind explaining a little about what happened? did he get sentenced and thats why theres hes banned for some time? I am confused because the internet seems split 50/50 on if he was falsely accused or if he truly is guilty. What did the investigation conclude? (sorry about my english)
Such a well produced video. Excellent work! Subscribing now!
Never forget that Bauer leaked sticky stuff knowing it would hurt Cole the most (which it did) and immediately was blacklisted by the MLB
that’s not why he was blacklisted lmao
First part, yes. Second part, that's quite a stretch lol
@@acrouton1394it played a massive part

@@cubic_regenthe was found innocent on all accounts
Seeing Cole crying made me laugh 😂 And they said there is no crying in baseball 🤣
Cole reminds me of the big tough guy growing up, that when he gets his ass beat by someone who's willing to "stand up to the big guy" then comes back the next day with his big brother, and then his Dad! lol
We need more people like Trevor in MLB.
wait for me I’ll be that guy
@@mlbb6584 Work hard every day! Do it!
And less corporate scum like Scott Boras and Rob Manfred.
"Bauer and Cole had no reason to hate each other" except that Cole seemed to spend every waking minute during practice talking shit about Bauer behind his back. Video seems extremely biased towards Cole yet somehow still paints him in a bad light lmao
I’d like to see the Royals sign him. That way I can follow Grienke in his twilight, and Bauer make a come back. I think Bauer could learn a lot from Zack.
You do have Aroldis Chapman now, who has a similarly bad reputation.
Bauer wouldn't be a willing student to anyone. And Greinke, I love the guy, but part of what makes him so endearing is that he probably wouldn't be a willing teacher to Bauer.
Maybe he could teach Bauer now not to brutally assault women.
I like this concept but I don't think Grenkie's introvert mentality would mesh with the Bauer whirlwind.
@@Gemnist98 Chapman is a shithead and absolute mental midget. I understand when he threw 105 mph he was super valueable but those days are long over and he's worthless today.
Definitely on Trevor Bauer's side and I'm a Yankee fan. MLB did him dirty because he shed light on a huge issue. He's the second coming of Canseco.
Great video!!!
"Southern Carolina" 💀 (great video btw!!)
based on his youtube account, Bauer actually seems to be quite likeable. cole on the other hand is the complete opposite of that.. can't stand this dude
Blows my mind the notion Bauer doesn't deserve to be on a MLB roster when Marcel Ozuna is.
Stellar video dude
"Momentum has been credited by more than a few as being a chief example on how to revolutionize baseball perception" Eri Sim, hitting baseballs with a door:
All of this aside. I would love to Bauer back in the MLB. Before his suspension he was the most exciting pitcher to watch in my opinion.
Reggie and Thurman hated each other too but they both have a World Series ring as teammates!
Two Word Series rings
I faked it with Boggs, so you’ve just gotta fake it with A-Rod Don Mattingly to Derek Jeter.
It’s like an Angry 4chan poster vs Instagram yuppie blogger
Trevor Bauer is the best thing that happened to baseball, and the league wanted to kill his career. He was innocent of allegations that almost ruined his career, and the MLB used it to actually destroy his reputation. He wanted to use social media to promote baseball to kids, make the game look exciting, and express ideas on how to make the game better. Sad to see he lost a full year and may not ever get his career as a part-time baseballer back
Hey, we found Bauer's burner account!
Agree completely. Well said.
Thank you, Bailey, for seeing this exactly how it is. Everything you said is bang on. The MLB buried this man in the prime of his career. It's not outta the question to think that lying floozie was coaxed into all this. The man has been proven innocent in a court of law. The MLB hated on T.B so much for showing what it's like behind the scenes. They also didn't like the fact he exposed covid as a joke. Just goes to show you once you go against the narrative, your career and life are in danger of being pulled from under your feet. BTW, I take Bauer over Cole anyday of the week.
Yeah that chick had a hookup then decided she wanted to get rich off it. These athletes need to be more careful around 304s. At least if he's gonna be messing around, make sure she's hot. He almost lost everything for a 6.
“Both winning Cy Young’s.” Only Bauer won a Cy Young.
What was that now?
Mickey Mouse CY
Great video
Every step Bauer has been better but he embarrassed the MLB so how he is persona non grata.
In another timeline Bauer and Cole faced against each other in the world series in 2021 in a West coast vs East coast rivalry
2022 makes more sense imo but yeah I agree
Even as a Yankees fan I somehow find myself liking Bauer more than Cole
I'm a Yankees fan also.Cole is obviously super talented. But how soft do you have to be to blame getting rocked on the game starting 3 mins late after Billy Crystal threw out the first pitch.
You know Cole still hasn’t won a Cy Young
Bauer is a "G" and Cole is a Punk. The Dodgers and MLB should be ashamed of the way they handled the Bauer situation.
Gerrit Cole was a jealous bully in college.Then he realized his ways wasn’t better and Trevor Bauer was the better pitcher. Trevor Bauer is a BaseBall god…
At least Bauer made it interesting. Only interesting thing about Cole was his interview when asked about sticky stuff.
Which one?? The Butthead interview or the Beavis interview??
This is a very interesting video and comparison of two completely different athletes who took different paths to success. The methods that have been taken by each player both as they live life and have developed professionally are oil and water. They just have personality conflicts and could not find a way to make that work between them. And had either of them gone to a different college then none of this would even matter. Fate. And had Whit Merrifield not done what he did they may have a different relationship today. Winning a championship together can do that for people who do not like each other.
After watching Bauer's KZhead channel and his Japan stuff he seems like a cool guy
As I did give this a thumbs up, I will say there is parts of IT's story you glanced over. I.e. the misdiagnosis given by the C's medical staff. Just adds even more to the narrative that he got screwed
What are you talking about?
Did I just watch a video about Isaiah thomas and not know it?
great documentary. great work bro
love me some trevor bauer
I hated Bauer when he was with Cleveland. He frustrated me as a White Sox fan. Now, opposite. Quite possibly my favorite player.
Had a friend who played with Cole at Orange Lutheran and was told he was major dickwad and the worst of what he saw was he smacked his gf at a party
Bauer totally pitched like lincecum in college lol. You can tell he changed his mechanics, Esp with the leg kick, in the pros
Bauer is untouchable because someone falsely accused him and because he went after the mlb ownership and establishment. He’s a hero and vital to the game. He will pitch again
He's a hero, but he won't pitch again, at least not in MLB. The owners clearly have him blackballed. Any team in the league could make a massive improvement to their rotation by signing him for league minimum, and literally none of them are; that speaks volumes.
@@cynicanal111 I think a team might take him once the season starts, so there's a distraction. It's also possible he'll get signed after 50 games in (finishing the suspension). He really doesn't need spring training, he's been training everyday since the suspension.
Bauer is the man!
@@cynicanal111 what is speaks to is that no one wants to touch someone with that kind of off the field baggage. Fair or not, sex related things are always more damaging to a career than alcohol or drug related stuff, or even straight violence charges. He's not a hero. He's just a talented ball player who is also an idiot. Threw away his entire career for a piece of strange.
@Chandler Russell nobody was convicted but all of her horseshit was thrown out in court. she literally sent her friends texts about "sinking my claws in him" AFTER their first encounter. Don't get me wrong he's an idiot for doing what he did with her- because he's the one who had everythung to lose. But she's full of shit. This wasn't some battered woman scared to leave after years of abuse. It's someone who wanted rough sex the first time she met Bauer then went back for more a second time. All of the sudden after the second time she wants to say how horrible the first time was. Nice try lady.
Cole is jealous that Bauer was better and more intelligent.
I think Bauer just realized early in life it doesnt really matter what others think of you if youre good enough on your own merit you can make it, that also lead him to being an ignorant ass so its no real shock those two are like oil and water
An ignorant guy that had a 4.88gpa? Uneducated? I think not! Less than perfect social skills perhaps. But he sure does have a lot of fans!
@@thecman26 You can be ignorant in more than just academic ways, you can be socially ignorant like Trevor was, im still all for him being in the league since the evidence points towards him being innocent of any crimes
I think he cares what people think. Everything he does screams look at me I’m different and I’m better than you for it
Bauer got offers from MLB teams. If he signed the new MLB team would take on part of his existing Dodgers salary. Meaning he would ONLY make his 22M. However if he signs outside of the MLB, let's say Japan, he gets his MLB money AND the money from his Japanese team, making him around 26.5M for the year. Pretty awesome "fuck you" to MLB and the Dodgers for thinking they know more than a judge.
obviously we'll never know for sure, but it sounds like cole's parents were insistent on him NOT skipping college for ANY amount of money. i'd like to think (in their eyes) it was not a negotiating tactic but a parenting move. sounds like they knew their son (and him mentally/maturity) and made the right call. sounds like they had fears of him signing out of highshool, making some (decent, possibly more) money and either suffering a career ending injury/not making it or worse, making it and making tonnes of money and going bankrupt before turing 50. i'm not saying college matured him and saved him, but considering the immediate options, his parents did right by him. as a life long Blue Jays fan, i think he's a total douche (either pitcher, really) but i guess in hindsight, he could've been worse.
the one big difference is, Bauer is a 100X better pitcher
Sounds like Cole was just jealous of Bauer because of how fast he improved.
Its not a rivalry. Cole hates Bauer. Bauer doesnt mention Cole
You failed to show how poorly Cole treated Baur. It was the behavior of a piece of garbage. Not giving that the attention it deserved was a failure on your part.
Let's put it this way: Bauer is doing much more for baseball than Cole is.
In reference to their college records and Era I'd be interested in knowing the level of competition each one went up against to get the stats they have
Pretty much the same. They were on same team pitching against the same schools
@@briancrawford69 well was one known as their ace and would pitch against the tougher teams on the schedule
@@W4114C3 they play a weekend series in college so they both faced the same teams…
It doesnt sound like they hate each other. They are just two totally different people who will never be friends. But they will always be college teammates, and have an uneasy bond.
This channel has glowed up frfr
Good video, but it’s not “Southern Carolina” it is South Carolina, as a fan of the gamecocks I noticed this immediately.
Bauer workouts work for him if it’s not broken no need to fix it
Imagine if these two had been as close friends as Jack Leiter and Kumar Rocker
As a Gamecocks fan I LOVED bouncing that UCLA team from the CWS. They were douchebags.
Southern Carolina
Ill take bauer over cole any day
Gerrit Cole is the worst aspect of baseball. Cheating and riding the top of the ranks. Bauer proved he could win a cy young doing what cole did. Bauer is the future of pitching, the rest of the league needs to get over "grand diddy's tips" and modernize. The stupid historical conventions on how to be a good pitcher are meaningless and that is why team staffers hate bauer. He proves they have ignored their own field and have become obsolete.
Seems like Cole started this by being jealous is college.
awesome video i think theres advantages to the way they both workout as growing up a pitcher myself i found myself doing alot of what trevor did to prep as for the beef its more understandable why they dont get along i always thought trevor was jealous of cole bc he felt like he had to work harder for the opportunities he got i kinda feel bad what i dont feel bad for is how he went above and beyond to be a douche on and off the field. i respect the way cole carries himself and isnt so blunt and public about things
So Cole is fake🤣
Honestly i like trevor now since he started in Japan a lot more humble
Where exactly is Southern Carolina? I can’t say I’ve heard of that one before.
We need to get these two in a boxing ring in Las Vegas
So long story short, Cole was a douche to Bauer in college because he felt threatened by their differences in approach and personality, which caused their animosity towards each other to grow over the years. I'm not saying Bauer is a saint (especially after the allegations), but I think I respect him a little more and Cole a little less after this video
Just imagine if the two of them had been able to set their differences aside, and learn from each other to benefit them both.
It's possible the feuding and proximity only made them both better.
imagine they had kids? it d be such a good pitcher man
nothing is better than texas baseball ranch, got me as a lefty 83-85 and now im up to 4 soo its a little pricey but really worth it
so cole had natural talent and was pissed bauer worked his ass off in his own way. interesting
Bauers transparency and personality r what sets him apart, all around a decent dude .
Being from South Carolina and hearing bro say SOUTHERN CAROLINA was crazzzzzzyyyyyy my head jerked so much my neck hurts
Putting 21mph on your fastball in 2 years. If that doesn't show work being put in idk what does. Crazy
Did you say, "Southern Carolina." Nice video though. 😂😘
As someone who lives in SEC country, yes that's exactly what he said. 🤣😂😂
Fyi, Santa Clarita is about 45 minutes north of Orange County and has just about the exact same lifestyle for middle to upper class white kids. Doesnt work for your "narrative" of how different hey are but its factual. If you like facts.
Trevor Bauer is one of the best and he's not even playing. Tells you who's side your on
My dad always used to say "I don't understand why people choose to play college ball when they could play pro ball. In baseball you can injure yourself at any moment. Take the money! You can go back to school later if you want." Just throwing that out there if any future players happen to see this comment.
Because you can improve your draft position and the amount of money you sign for
@@briancrawford69 Still a gamble
