i swear when we were playing back i the 90's, a lot of these technique's didn't exist... and it's fun to see this sort of evolution of the game. bauer is FAMOUS for taking his practice and routines to the next level. it's like he's more interested in what the human body can do, and using that knowledge to work on his mechanics. the proof is in the pudding... cy young winner, multiple year cy young contender.

one of my favorite videos yet, trev! i really like how you explain and teach pitching. as a pitcher for many years, i wish i had these pointers at my disposal! it would have made a world of difference!

Outstanding. Most training vids will show...something like...."welll I kinda just hold it like THIS and let 'er fly" Trevor really teaches in this and that's super cool.

This was the best instruction on the pitching form I ever saw, a little depressing as I really needed this years ago, boy I wish I grew up next to Trevor, I had two AA offers just on a pure arm with no instruction, then ended up with family and parental responsibility and then time flew by, but if I had a video like this years ago it would have propelled me, players today have no idea how lucky they are that they have Trevor and YT to help them, this is amazing, it's a 'how to be a surgeon in one instructional video', if you have the talent and you listen to everything Trevor says here, you are making all the teams...simply amazing....THANK YOU TREVOR...

Great video. The way he broke it down and made it understandable for notbonly myself but to teach my son so he could relate was GREAT!! Awesome video

“Throw the ball at the wall and catch it behind your back” - I thought he was showing off, but the reason for this drill is very smart.

AS A COLLEGE PITCHER ITS EXTREMELY HARD TO LEARN, OR RELEARN THE BASICS, THANKS MAN YOU DEFINITELY HELP A LOT 🙏🏾💯 ( all caps cause that’s what gangsters do 🤣🤷🏽‍♂️)

A few years ago i said that tb is my fav player whos not a dodger, thank u for signing with l.a. Dodgers

I really like the coaching/instruction type content. More of this, please.

wish that you could have taught me the curve ball when I was pitching, Your instructions are so much easier than anything I was ever taught. Great video

Besides all the live ab videos this is right there. One of the best explanations on how to throw a baseball and how to throw a curveball. Well done sir

that gun method is incredible!!!!! my nephew is a pitcher. i've been working with him on and off since he was in little league. he's in the 8th grade now, so I'd REALLY love to show him this video and have him try it out.

1:01 oh, we know Trevor

Trevor is a wonderful teacher, some really great wisdom being imparted

This is the first time i have ever heard and been shown how to throw a curveball! Why doesnt anyone else explain it that easy. I assumed you had to snap your wrists to get that spin.. of course its way too late to make a difference for me.. lol but i just always wondered how to correctly throw it. My dad pitched in the minor leagues in the Phillies organization back in the 60s but he never really taught me. He would say it was like the action of “pulling down a window shade” i can see that now, but didnt explain what to do with the wrists and hold the ball.. but now i know. Trevor people dont know who you are. They assume.. for you to do videos like this for the fans is such a big deal. Thank you man.. even for a man long since his prime learns a lot from your videos.

Te Gangsta curve worked wonders for me. my velo on my curve increased by almost 10 and the vertical break increased by like 9 inches!

these vids make me happy

Wow! What a great lesson! Super helpful

12:58 I wanna see Trevor back in the MLB so he can preach these sorts of pitching techniques to anyone and everyone that will listen. He's not torquing his elbow, he's not flicking a wrist, none of that. He's letting the grip and technique do the work. This is why you'll still see Trevor Bauer throwing gas and some nasty curveballs 10 or 15 years from now, without needing Tommy John surgery or any other serious injuries. His technique throws great pitches, and also prevents injury. It's great, more players should learn this way!

I don't pitch but I find it fascinating and love baseball I can't tell you how much I love this episode

There's a way to increase a fastball speed just by putting the 2 top fingers closer together, even touching each other. Won't help for control but it creates less drag.

Buster taught Trevor to keep that mfn' thang on him!

I love how Trevor gives his dad credit for teaching him and others this dope safe(er) pitch.

Hiya Trev, I love how you are going deep into skill acquisitom with the internal vs external focus and cues! Watching you coach is also crazy because a lot of the stuff you do lands squarely within the Constraints Led Approach to Skill Acquisition which is a new way of looking at the world that I think you'll love! I would highly recommend checking out Rob Gray if you'd like to learn more, he has the best podcast out there (The Perception Action Podcast) when it comes to this stuff and is super highly respected. His sporting background is also in Baseball and has published a lot of scientific research in baseball.

Yeah he's known for basically coaching the entire pitching staff wherever he plays. He genuinely knows more about pitching than damn near anyone. Maybe 2nd behind the guy who fixed Nolan Ryan's throw and made his last years in baseball his most successful, with the least injury. And that same coach also taught Tom Brady how to throw better too, in a way that reduced the chance of injury while also being a better, stronger, more accurate throw. Brady saught him out because he's so well known amongst athletes. I can't remember his name but there's a GQ video on KZread about it, if you search for "the coach who trained and fixed nolan Ryan GQ" or something and you should find it. It's just as fascinating as this Trevor Bauer video although it's more about his history than the mechanics of baseball. But yeah he has a pitching school now where he trains tons of people

Thanks Trevor

Travor bouer the besttttt wow

I'm just here because I love baseball and appreciate the drills and techniques that pitchers do....... that's all I swear

Amazing 👏🏽insight!

I'm struggling with when to pronate. Does the precise timing matter? Is the point just to avoid supination, so the ball rolls forward with a natural follow-through? Also, how tight should the grip be? I'm getting good results, but not consistently. I don't hang it much, but I spike it a lot. They told me to miss low.

I'd love him to do a video on proper technique to lower the pressure or torque on your elbow while pitching.

Awesome stuff 🤣🤣

Big fan of you Bauer. Wish I could come down and work on some things. Seems like a really cool laid back facility unless sims is there lol

This girl is awesome! More power to her!
