Los Angeles Dodgers pitched Trevor Bauer is the reigning NL Cy Young winner and he's not afraid to tell anyone who will listen just how good he is.
Unfortunately for him, not everyone wants to hear it.
MLB's social media team asked a panel of experts who they think is the Cy Young favorite in 2021. Bauer, who won the Cy Young as a member of the Cincinnati Reds last season, finished fifth in the poll. The ever brash Brauer responded to the tweet, which asked "Who ya got?" by saying, "Reigning. Defending. Undisputed."
Paul Heyman read fastball and swung for the fences.
There’s a power “outage”in Bauer’s #RESPECT department.

REIGNING DEFENDING UNDISPUTED is reserved by me, Paul Heyman, for @WWERomanReigns.
Pitch THAT!
Bauer didn't respond as he was taking the mound on Friday night against the San Francisco Giants. Bauer went 6.1 innings, striking out 11 and giving up no earned runs in victory.
He also egged on the crowd as they booed him.
It's a shame Bauer and Heyman are off to a rough start as he certainly seems like a Paul Heyman guy.
