Today, Ommissioner Rob (Boy) Manfred suspended Dodgers P Trevor Bauer for two years over his sexual abuse allegations.
Osuna got 75 games; Chapman got 30 (in an incident that involved use of a firearm); German got 80. Trevor Bauer got two years?
No one condones violence or abuse, but he is clearly being singled out here because he's been critical of Manfred. This is not the least bit fair.
A judge refused to grant the woman a restraining order and prosecutors said they didn’t have enough to prosecute a case against Bauer. he is suing her for defamation.
The woman said she has had sex with two of the Padres, including Tatis Jr.,
If you read Twitter, Trevor Bauer is one of the most outspoken players on social media, and often critical of the way baseball does things. Sometimes I agree with him; sometimes I don’t. But in light of the firing of Ken Rosenthal for making the lightest critccism of Boy Manfred, it looks like Bauer was targeted and cancelled for his outspokenness.
IOW, this is an unfair, punitive, and vengeful punishment designed to destroy Bauer’s career. Typical of Boy Manfred, and another reason why MLB is going down the tubes.
