Trevor opens up about his early obsession with the game, his engineering mindset, his rise from UCLA to the Major Leagues, winning the Cy Young, signing a historic Dodgers contract, and the moment his career changed. In this episode, Shawn French and Trevor discuss the controversy that pushed him out of MLB, the suspension and release that followed, his decision to keep competing in Japan, Mexico, and independent baseball, and the mindset that has kept him standing when most people would have walked away. This conversation is about resilience, reputation, competitiveness, and what it really means to keep going when the world expects you to stop. The Determined Society is hosted by Shawn French — a show for people who refuse to quit.
