Well, they got Puig, Franmil Reyes and Cody Allen.

I suppose the Indians are getting something from the Padres as well.

Oops saw that Logan Allen came in the deal.  So effectively the Padres got Taylor Trammell for him.

San Diego also sent Franmil Reyes to Cleveland

Summary from Rosenthal:

Not sure why the Reds are giving up multiple top prospects plus Puig for 1.5 seasons of Trevor Bauer. 

Maybe they think they can make a real run next year and that Bauer will put him over the edge.

Luke Voigt is having an MRI for a core injury. Someone might need a 1B.

Chris Davis' contract would put the Yankees over the luxury tax threshold, which they have been actively trying to avoid.

Wouldn't expect the Indians to be willing to pay Puig.

I’m surprise they want him at all, he’s a hothead. And giving up Bauer for him? There sure must be more to it than immediately apparent.

Maybe they hired Dan Duquette?

They gave up a year and a half of Bauer for a young cheap power hitting DH/COF, a top 100 LHP prospect, a decent AA pitching prospect, a low minors lottery ticket, and Puig. 

I find it funny referring to Puig as a hothead with no mention of Bauer's antics. He just threw a temper tantrum on the mound the other day.

Yes, he threw a ball into the center field bleachers, if I understand. And Puig has been involved in how many incidents? More than one.

the trade was complicated, I wasn’t sure what Cleveland was getting back in addition to Puig, nor who was going where. But Puig is undoubtedly a hothead. Bauer did something stupid. Unless Bauer also has a history of such things, the two are not comparable.

Bauer most definitely has a history of being a hot head/has off field concerns.

Kind of shocking you don't know that honestly.

I'm not familiar with everything Puig has done, so you can fill me in if I'm mistaken, but isn't it his tendency of charging the mound when he gets beaned and believes it to be intentional the main troublesome thing he does.
