He not only cheated, he did so for a single inning and then went back to not using his substance to show via stats the difference. When nothing came of it, he said fuck it and became possibly the best at it. All the while he is being very loud about his disappointment in MLB in how they are trying to enforce rules that are somewhat vague and seemingly being policed unevenly. it will probably get him in trouble in the long run. Hopefully his contract still pays out at least the bulk of his contract in the event he gets banned.

bauer isnt the problem, he’s the solution- love him or hate him, he’s promoting conversation on the topic and forcing MLB to pick a lane. If the MLB fines him or suspends him, that’s absolutely ridiculous. He’s mouthed off about a lot of shit over the years and I don’t love everything he does, but he’s been an absolute asset when it comes to pulling back the curtain and finding out what’s actually going on. Great for baseball.

@@mirraco323I hear ya. I do think the beginning exploitation of it was purely him hoping MLB was going to take an early stand. I don't believe, because no one can truly say but him and his close circle, that using the substance was the ultimate goal. I also believe once MLB took no approach to the matter that the option was to continue the traditional path or follow the trend that was going to lead to these insane stats and increased spin rates from pitchers and get him a contract that he got. The morals of it can certainly be in question, but I don't think any of us could truly say we wouldn't do the same thing if in these pitchers shoes.

@@scottiep6703 If you are going to act like a child and throw insults around, then I won’t be polite either. It seems that, in addition to lacking the maturity of an adult, you also aren’t equipped with basic reading comprehension. What I suggested in my comment is that Bauer is almost certainly using illegal foreign substances, but it’s ridiculous to make him the “face of foreign substances” as if he is the leading abuser of this crime. I never suggested that he isn’t using foreign substances, and by that standard, yes, he is a cheater, as are many others. You don’t seem to be able to understand the distinction between a single participant (who, by the way, clearly resisted the participation) and someone who is the main culprit. Bauer is the former but is being treated by some as if he is the latter.

I just want to point out that only Ohtani's spin rate on his four seam fastball and slider increased. I don't think it has to do with substances. I don't think there's a way that Ohtani would just use substances when he's about to throw a specific pitch. Maybe it has to do with his increased velocity because last year he was throwing high 80s to low 90s because of an injury.

this is an awesome video. slightly related, I've played Australian rules football here since i was 8, and after 20 years i used griptec after coming to a new team and was recommended it. I found my control of the ball and ability to hold/take marks in wet conditions increase massively. Furthermore, players have arms and gear oiled to make them harder to tackle and compete against. Seeing this video its made me wonder if we're heading in the same direction, or if we are already there. In fact, it's completely blatant too. with a water runner even running out with a can of griptec to re apply it to our full forward.

He and others are likely just gaslighting MLB and hitters. There's no reason to think that actual spin rates have drastically increased over the last few years. The equation used to estimate it includes change in trajectory as a variable. Such changes are not exclusive to spin rate. For example, the average seam height of MLB balls increased by ~0.001 inches between 2019 and 2020. Studies have shown that even such a small difference can cause an apparent increase in spin rate of at least 200 rpm or more depending on the pitcher and pitch type despite the increased movement being due to increased drag from the higher seams not increased spin rate. Foreign substances have always been used (and likely always will) and it makes no sense that such use would cause a major spike when the ingredients for the supposed wonder substance have all been around for quite awhile. You would expect a steady improvement as the cheaters improve their craft. Changes to the balls and other aspects are what would be expected to cause immediate significant results. That, combined with how many pitchers are so obvious about behaving as though they're using a foreign substance reminds me of something Charlie Hough once said (something along the lines of) "convincing your opponent that you're throwing spitballs can be just as effective as actually throwing spitballs." I think a little of that is what's going on just with a different substance being the focus. It would be easy for the umps to simply check the pitchers for such substances and wouldn't take long at all to analyze all these balls being confiscated. If MLB were really concerned, they'd know by now and punishments would have been dealt. It's more likely that they're still having quality issues with the balls and are confiscating them to compare properties etc. Pitchers just picked up on the opportunity to mess with batters heads by intentionally keeping the controversey going.

Not do what 70% of pitchers do and possibly lose your job or up the game so the MLB HAS to stop it all together.

It's similar to the problem of sign stealing in football. It lives in a gray area. Not technically illegal, but still seems slimy to most people. The problem with baseball is that with some substances allowed, and others not, it's hard to tell where the line is, particularly with new substances or combinations of substances. Either say all of it is allowed or none of it is.

He's no hero. He could have been had he stuck to calling out the cheating rather than resorting to it himself in order to get paid a few million more dollars. No, I believe the word you're looking for is hypocrite. The kind of guy who runs his mouth about cheating and then cheats himself. All that "everyone does it" bullshit is only ever bandied about when it's convenient for the person making the argument. Observe: Everyone steals signs, and video technology has only recently gotten good enough to allow for effective real-time sign stealing. MLB implements rules regarding the use of electronics in the stealing of signs. Teams around the league push the boundaries of this new rule to see the limits of what will be punished. The initial more minor infractions by teams like the Red Sox and Yankees go mostly unnoticed. So we push the line further, and the Astros use sign-stealing schemes to the greatest extent and success, subsequently being scapegoated for behaviors similar to ones used all around the league. This is largely due to the sheer brazenness of the overall scheme and the poor poor victimized yankees and dodgers. So, I'm not really sure why I should be upset that the astros hitters, or any hitters, were trying to gain an unfair advantage against pitchers who, through the use of illegal substances, have artificially increased their spin rates trying to gain an unfair advantage against hitters. You know, the reason why almost no one hits over .300 anymore, and strikeouts are comically inflated, and every other ball in play is a homer. FFS, the pitchers have a built in advantage of the game being 9 fielders (which can be shifted anywhere based on analytics) against 1 hitter, and still 70% of them according to Bauer have been cheating since forever. Either it's all cheating and should be rooted out immediately, or none of it is. You don't get to have your cake and eat it too. Bauer doesn't get to be a hero for calling out cheating if he cheats himself. Or maybe he does, IDK. Afterall, the "truth" is just whatever delusion a majority of people subscribe to.

Garett Cole (idiot) debacled himself unable to give a direct statement about pitcher using substance other then to say "I don't know how to answer that..." And now an astro physicist has come into play and has commented on her analysis of the baseballs from 2017 to 2021, that the baseballs has indeed changed to a degree. Stating the stitching on the cover changed, the windings have loosed and tightened over the past 2 years which contributed to the homeruns in 2019-2020 to a difference to benefit the pitchers in 2021. So pretty much this video was ahead of the "curve." Great job man, keep up the good work!

I honestly had no idea pitchers used substances, Thought pine tar was legal for hitters. I feel like I used to watch Alex Rodriguez use it on the bats and he would touch it during his at bat routine. Regardless, what an awesome video. I’ve been doing more research on this and it’s really interesting. Thanks for the breakdown!

Yeah batters use it and they’re well allowed too. I believe it’s because it helps the batter maintain their grip on the bat. Idk if that’s the extent of it but it’s not illegal yet.

You kind of misrepresented the Trevor Bauer story about 1:30 into the video, balls were collected from Bauer and tons of other pitchers all over the league to help mlb study what substances were being used, however this was voluntarily done and none of the players are under investigation. MLB even promised to not hand out punishments until next year after judgements are made. The article Bauer called a gossip blog falsely accused him of being under investigation because the balls were collected, even though it was done voluntarily and not as part of an investigation

Regarding the increase in spin rate for guys throwing no-hitters: It should be pointed out that Carlos Rodon's velocity has increased by 2.5 MPH on average vs. prior seasons. I don't know if that velo increase is sufficient to explain his increased spin rate, but higher velocity pitches also have a higher spin rate so it's possible Rodon's spin rate increase is due to increased velocity instead of cheating. Spin rate improvements only really become suspicious when velocity is unchanged which is not the case with Rodon whose fastball has gone from 92.5 to 95.5.

There is a related problem, though, that needs to be addressed. Pitchers are casually expected to put so much into their work that it's taken for granted that they will need surgery at some point. That's ridiculous. Having an enhancing substance which isn't a drug means more pitchers are competitive, meaning a team can put less burden on the aces. Plus, less pitches are needed to get through a game. Obviously, hitting batters in the face is not good. And seeing more hits and runs is more exciting. But I think at the very least, non-drug substances don't have the same moral problem as drugs, because you're not placing an expectation on players to biologically alter their body (which is dangerous). There needs to be some kind of remedy to the injured pitcher problem, even if this isn't it. Maybe special gloves thst give you incredible grip but without impeding your finesse?

Mr Sims probably wasn't fully warmed up or anything and just was giving a demonstration. I say this based on velocity not spin rate - in the video most of his pitches were around 80 mph, and there's no way you could be drafted only throwing 80.

I do not watch baseball, and only have gotten into these videos the last few days after watching a bunch of cool compilation videos on youtube. I really hope Trevor Bauer doesn't become the fall guy for this. If they try to single him out without basically hitting the rest of the league with fines, suspensions, and/or bans. He seems to be one of the most open about using sticky substances without just outright saying what he is using. His recent video shows a fairly sticky ball supposedly just using rosin and sweat. I only say supposedly because he ran his hand through his hair, and hair products might be making things somewhat more sticky. in any case, thank you for the video. If Trevor has some sort of super tacky, if he ends up banned, fined, or suspended for whatever he is using, he might have a future selling his product to Strongmen for atlas stones as they are always looking for more advantage when doing competitions. In their case, it is legal is competitions, although it might be more regulated as to what acceptable brands or specific compounds are allowed.

Now, the grip conversation makes sense, baseballs aren’t always fun to try and get some extra spin with, but it gets to a point where that “grip” conversation makes 0 sense if you’re hitting near 3000rpm and don’t have any control over the amount of movement the ball has. Now it’s getting dangerous. But it’s also just downright dumb because grip is basically more spin, but more spin doesn’t give you control, it gives it more movement, and thats an intangible when it comes to player control. Once it’s left your fingertips, you can no longer stop it. And if it becomes a shoddy pitch that ends up slapping someones chin, teeth, cheek, or worse. Are those same idiots going to say “Oh, it was just an unlucky pitch” or are they going to soon realize that there is only so much spin you can control.
