Dude got railroaded. Hope he makes it back to the bigs where he belongs.
Just stop the trolling on this.
It wasn’t funny any of the times you did this before and it isn’t now.
With all due respect and I mean that, are we not permitted to have a difference of opinion on a topic? I'm not arguing that Bauer is a good guy or even not a bad guy however the facts as I understand them are as follows:
1. The Dodgers are aware of Bauer's history yet they sign him to an enormous FA contract.
2. The SD woman makes allegations against Bauer.
3. Bauer is suspended by MLB for 324 games.
4. Bauer provides evidence that the accuser lied about when the injuries occurred and an independent arbitrator truncates Bauer's suspension to 194 games. In addition, Bauer was never actually charged with a crime and his accuser was denied the restraining order which she sought.
I'm not arguing that St Louis should sign the guy, they shouldn't obviously. But if he didn't actually commit the crime he was accused of then he should be able to earn a living.
