His stats after they started checking for sticky stuff regressed back to what he was before 2020. In the 4 starts his ERA was 3.45 and WHIP was 1.45 so without his SpiderTack he was back to a normal average pitcher. That also makes a difference.

@PAinPA That particular comment wasn’t about Bauer, but I get what you’re saying. That does seem to be the new norm, but that doesn’t mean it’s right. I don’t speak for my favorite team, but I couldn’t care less about public opinion. Most of the public is led by their emotions rather than facts, logic and reason as you can see from this thread. I do also understand though that these businesses have to care about public opinion.

This subject is only brought up for everyone to discuss exactly what is being discussed. I posted twice. Once about him being unclaimed and once about his performance without SpiderTack and went completely un-noticed. I don’t care. I actually posted hoping to be missed to make this point that you all only bring this guy up for the very purpose to argue about anything but baseball or whether he should or shouldn’t belong.

View from across the ocean:
- Every team would benefit from signing him, because everybody lacks (at least mediocre) pitching
- It reminds me very strongly of Colin Kaepernick
- It is still in the wrong part of this forum, because it is off-topic, but nobody cares

Lol. I drink coffee when I play. The hot pockets was a joke.

Agreed, but putting up with a low cost option, even though he does seem like a DB, could benefit a lot of teams on the field. I'd hate to be a GM needing a middle of the rotation arm right now. That WHIP is eh, but the ERA was alright.

@broken_toy1 He limited our discussion to this "Discuss without bringing up anything besides playing baseball.",
So I can only talk about wanting or not wanting Bauer on my team in the context of baseball is what he is saying. He wrote it right up there. That sentence boils down to, "Only comment on whether he would be good at baseball or not"
That is the way I read it, if you can point out to me what I'm missing, I'll try and answer as genuine as I can
I get what you're saying. I think the idea is to comment on if he would be a benefit to your team. You can't ignore the 500 lb. gorilla, but the gorilla isn't the main topic of discussion. Would he help your team without being a distraction? That's it.
Thank you for not taking my comment as a sleight. That was not my intention. I read it later and thought it might be taken that way.
