Sep 29, 2019; New York City, NY, USA; New York Mets pitcher Noah Syndergaard (34) at Citi Field.
Trevor Bauer, arguably the most online pitcher in Major League Baseball, called out Mets pitcher Noah Syndergaard for what the new Dodgers player determined to be distasteful comments towards fans. The call-out came through a Twitter post featuring screenshots of Syndergaard responding to negative comments on a recent Instagram post of his.
Bauer worded his tweet as a defense of fans, claiming that Syndergaard was going after 'what makes [pro baseball] games go.'
Also, @Noahsyndergaard, try to treat the fans better. They’re what makes our game go. No place for personal insults, especially about someone else’s wife. pic.twitter.com/I3FaZbR224
— Trevor Bauer (トレバー・バウアー) (@BauerOutage) February 20, 2021Syndergaard understandably did not take this commentary lightly, and responded to the Los Angeles pitcher less than 20 minutes later with a veiled call out of his own towards Bauer's posting habits.

— Trevor Bauer (トレバー・バウアー) (@BauerOutage) February 20, 2021Just kidding! After a Mets Twitter blogger made a joke about Bauer dating his agent, Rachel Luba, Thor threw some fuel to the fire, giving credence to the joke and props to the person who posted that -- he also referenced an ongoing bit where the blogger asks if his wife is ever coming back.
Well played...
She’s still not coming back.
— Noah Syndergaard (@Noahsyndergaard) February 20, 2021As Syndergaard notes in one of his final tweets of the interaction, these are just jokes flying on the timeline. But if you are curious as to whether this sort of beef will spill onto the diamond this season, the Dodgers are scheduled to visit the Mets on Aug. 13. It's some time away so perhaps cooler heads will prevail by then, but knowing how Bauer likes to get things started online, it's hard to imagine this being the last time this beef is marinated.
© Provided by CBS SportsIn one of the most biggest moves of the MLB offseason, reigning Cy NL Young Award winner Trevor Bauerannounced that he's signing with the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday. The announcement comes after the New York Mets were aggressively attempting to add Bauer to the their already talented starting rotation. Instead, he picked the reigning World Series Champions -- who also have a loaded rotation.
Bauer's deal with the Dodgers is a three-year contract that will be worth $102 million. In addition, Bauer can opt out of the deal after the 2021 and 2022 seasons. Over the next two years, Bauer will make $40 million and $45 million, respectively.
He accumulated a 5-4 record to go along with a 1.73 ERA and 100 strikeouts in 73 innings during the COVID-19 pandemic-shortened 2020 season. The ace helped lead the Cincinnati Reds to their first postseason berth since 2013.
While the Dodgers ultimately ended up to be the destination for Bauer, his official website actually had a link to new Mets merchandise for the star pitcher about an hour before the announcement. There was also a signed Mets hat from Bauer listed as a giveaway on the site.
Those links and items were eventually deleted. Then, there was a signed Dodgers hat from Bauer listed as a giveaway.
So, as should come as no surprise, Mets fans had a lot to say concerning Bauer and his decision to sign with the Dodgers. After all, the team made a huge splash earlier this offseason when New York acquired All-Star shortstop Francisco Lindor in a trade with the Cleveland Indians. The Mets front office was hoping to pair Bauer with the likes of Jacob deGrom, Carlos Carrasco and Marcus Stroman.
Here's how the Mets fanbase reacted to the Bauer signing.
We have Degrom. 2 Cys. Where's your second? Thank you for going to LA
