Just a head’s up folks: Former UCLA pitcher and recent No. 3 pick of the Arizona Diamondbacks Trevor Bauer is one of three finalists for the Golden Spikes Award, which will be presented later today.

Bauer, who finished his illustrious career with a sizzling senior season, is squaring up against to other aces – Virginia’s Danny Hultzen and Texas’ Taylor Jungmann.

Bauer won Player of the Year honors from Collegiate Baseball and was honored as the Pac-10 Pitcher of the Year after setting a Pac-10 single-season record with 203 strikeouts while going 13-2 with a 1.25 ERA for the Bruins. Bauer also had 10 complete games, including nine in a row, and goes down as the school’s career leader in wins (34), strikeouts (460) and innings pitched (373.1).

The presentation is being aired live for the first time and will start at 3 p.m. on the MLB Network, MLB.com and GoldenSpikesAward.com.
