At least he’s honest.

Trevor Bauer sounds like the worst boyfriend in baseball, egotistical and unwilling to meet anyone halfway.

The controversial and honest-to-a-fault Indians pitcher described why he’s still single in a feature Sports Illustrated published Tuesday. When he meets a potential partner, he lays out his guidelines.

“I have three rules,” he said. “One: no feelings. As soon as I sense you’re developing feelings, I’m going to cut it off, because I’m not interested in a relationship and I’m emotionally unavailable. Two: no social media posts about me while we’re together, because private life stays private. Three: I sleep with other people. I’m going to continue to sleep with other people. If you’re not OK with that, we won’t sleep together, and that’s perfectly fine. We can just be perfectly polite platonic friends.”

In his mind, Bauer is being thoughtful.

“I imagine if I was married at this point, I would be a very bad husband,” he said.

He is a very good pitcher, however. The All-Star, who has pledged he will never sign a long-term deal anywhere when he can become a free agent after the 2020 season, went 12-6 with a 2.21 ERA last season.
