Former Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer, who was suspended for violating MLB's sexual assault and domestic violence policy, is looking for another chance to sign with an MLB team after playing in Japan and an independent travel team.
On Sunday, former Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer took the mound at Camelback Ranch in Arizona against some minor leaguers with his former team. Following a two-year suspension after violating MLB ’s sexual assault and domestic violence policy, the Dodgers cut ties with the Cy Young winner last January after he was reinstated. Following a separate investigation, a Los Angeles County judge declined to file criminal charges against him.
Bauer did not receive an offer from any other team in the league. He then signed a one-year contract with the Yohohama DeNA BayStars of Nippon Professional Baseball in Japan. On Thursday, the right-handed pitcher signed with the Asian Breeze, a pay-to-play independent travel team. ESPN reported that after the game, in which Bauer pitched three scoreless innings with four strikeouts, he told media members it’s "not about the money," and that he should have another opportunity to sign with another MLB team.
