Terrible start to Trevor Bauer‘s Thanksgiving week … a tire flew off a semi-truck and smashed up his $300,000 McLaren and the photo is heartbreaking!!!
It all went down in Houston, Texas early Tuesday … where the Cincinnati Reds pitcher’s beloved 2016 McLaren 650S was parked at the local McLaren dealership.
We’re told the dealership is located next to a highway — and earlier today, a tire came loose on a semi-truck, flew across 6 lanes of traffic, ricocheted off a wall and smashed through a double-paned glass window before hitting the car!!!
Yesterday, if you told me a semi truck would total my Mclaren, I would’ve believed you. If you told me it would happen like THIS? I would’ve said you’re out of your mind. If this isn’t @Mayhem I don’t know what is @Allstate pic.twitter.com/XqdiIgojB8

The photo shows the damage to the wall, the glass and car … it’s a MIRACLE no one was hurt!!!
Sources familiar with the situation tell us the car is totaled — but the good news, IT’S INSURED!!!
For his part, Trevor has a good attitude about the situation … tweeting, “Yesterday, if you told me a semi truck would total my Mclaren, I would’ve believed you. If you told me it would happen like THIS? I would’ve said you’re out of your mind. If this isn’t @Mayhem I don’t know what is @Allstate.”
Bauer has reportedly made around $30 mil during his MLB career — and is slated to make another $18 mil in the 2020 season.
In other words, it’s all gonna be okay!
