It may be that the Dodgers were lazy in gathering information before the Bauer signing. It may be that they saw him as a player who could help them repeat as champions and disregarded the rest.
There’s no room for violence against another person. Even if they “ask for it.” And I’m not talking about something playful. There’s nothing playful about what she or even he described. Regardless of her motivations, there’s never any excuse for violence.
“…He is at worst a felon who should be done as a professional baseball player, and if not that than certainly done with the team of Jackie Robinson. The eccentricities were cute for a while; they’re not anymore. Enough….” Truer words rarely written. Perfect.
When the story broke, I was skeptical. Over time, I am ready for the Dodgers to move on from Bauer. Sooner than later. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this.
I’ve read this a couple times Dodger Howard, and given the obvious opinion that violence upon women is despicable, the refuting claims and proof that Trevor provided makes a solid case that the so-called victim was an eager participant in rough sex and indeed participated twice. I prefer my 40 million pitcher to watch Netflix play Xbox or even fool around with a gold digger - but not before he toes the rubber……we know that’s what this is right? A gold digger who is after a payoff. Definitely ease up on the condemnation until all is grok

Good fair strong column, Howard.
Excellent piece.
I will refrain from opinion, (but it doesn’t look good for him…. As my Nana told me there are 3 sides to every story)
Forget Baseball!! It’s not a good look for our team or society … 🥺🥺
