The 2017 Tribe Fest is finally upon us. It’s a time to hear from the players themselves, meet the players, and if you happen to be one of he players, it’s also a time to have Trevor Bauer playfully call you out on Twitter for trivial things, apparently.
He started last night with a jab at Jason Kipnis, who is spending this weekend somewhere else instead of hanging out with his teammates signing autographs for fans like a good teammate.

Even Indians player at Tribe Fest signing autographs for fans are not safe from Trevor’s Twitter trolling, though. Carlos Santana was being a bit of a ball hog with his autograph on this team ball — Trevor wasn’t about to let that go unnoticed.

My very-real and thought-out math calculations say you could probably bit fit about five more signatures on this ball, or one-and-a-half Santana-sized autographs.
Tribe Fest is still just getting started, and hopefully so is Bauer.
