Trevor Bauer Appears to Threaten MLB Employee's Job in Bizarre Twitter Clapback
By Sean Facey
Death, taxes and Trevor Bauer getting into unnecessary Twitter beefs. These are the certainties of life.
The latest installment of the Cleveland Indians starter's antics on social media came when he appeared to threaten an MLB employee's job in an incredibly strange clapback.
No @ sign would seem to qualify as “Without directly mentioning them” but what do I know...??♂️ I see you work for mlb. This probably isn’t the thread you want to jump into. Just saying. pic.twitter.com/ls07WlT2Wp

Bauer immediately made the jump from calling her out for subtweeting him to threatening her job security for absolutely no reason at all.
He's been incredibly confrontational over the past 24 hours. Bauer also called out baseball writer Keith Law after he tweeted that he didn't deserve attention.
Neither do you, little guy. Keep my name out your mouth and we can coexist. Keep pulling this subtweet bs and we can go to war. Just make sure you bring your booster stool to stand on. I don’t like punching down on people. ?? https://t.co/rX8yVU2NuB

For a guy who does a lot of talking about harassment and bullying, Bauer sure seems to get around in calling people out and continuously poking them when he doesn't need to.
The whole situation is just odd and disappointing. There's no reason for an MLB pitcher to be threatening an MLB employee on social media.
Hopefully Bauer starts to recognize that these Twitter wars don't do anything to improve his public image and that he would just be better off if he just moved on from whatever people have to say about him.
