Dodgers CEO says team decision makers were 'unanimous' in their decision to release Trevor Bauer
Team CEO Stan Kasten, along with other Dodgers executives, met with reporters Wednesday to discuss that decision, according to ESPN. It wasn't a tough one, per Kasten, who said team decision makers were "unanimous" in their desire to cut Bauer. "The decision we reached was unanimous among the people that are charged with having to make this decision," Kasten told reporters. Those encounters were consensual at first, but Bauer allegedly went too far and did not listen when the woman reportedly told Bauer to stop. In December, an arbitrator reduced Bauer's suspension to 194 games, opening the 14-day window for the Dodgers to reinstate the pitcher.
wftv.comBauer released by Los Angeles Dodgers after suspension cut
NEW YORK — (AP) — Trevor Bauer was released Thursday by the Los Angeles Dodgers after the pitcher's unprecedented 324-game suspension over sexual misconduct allegations was reduced by an arbitrator. Los Angeles designated Bauer for assignment on Jan. 6, the last day to restore him to the roster, after arbitrator Martin Scheinman cut the suspension imposed by baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred from 324 to 194 games. The Dodgers placed the pitcher on waivers Thursday, and any team can claim Bauer by 1 p.m. EST Friday. Bauer is owed about $22.5 million from the remainder of his $102 million, three-year contract, making a waiver claim unlikely. Bauer joined his hometown Dodgers before the 2021 season and was 8-5 with a 2.59 ERA in 17 starts before being placed on leave.

LOS ANGELES — (AP) — The Los Angeles Dodgers are cutting ties with pitcher Trevor Bauer, whose unprecedented 324-game suspension over sexual misconduct allegations was reduced two weeks ago, allowing him to resume his career with the start of the new season. If the 2020 NL Cy Young Award winner is released, Los Angeles would remain responsible for the more than $22.5 million remaining on Bauer's contract. The Dodgers had until Friday to restore Bauer to the roster under baseball’s rules and they didn't announce their decision until late afternoon. The team has rarely commented on the divisive case since Bauer was put on paid administrative leave in July 2021. In a ruling on Dec. 22, Scheinman upheld a 194-game suspension rather than Manfred’s intended 324-game penalty and reinstated Bauer immediately.

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer lost two rulings in court on Wednesday related to his sexual assault allegations, according to the Los Angeles Times . A judge ruled that a San Diego woman who accused Bauer of sexual assault can continue her lawsuit against him and dismissed Bauer’s defamation lawsuit against one of her former attorneys. That defamation suit being dismissed does not impact his other defamation suits related to the case. Three women have come forward with accusations of sexual assault against Bauer, claiming that the pitcher choked them unconscious during consensual sex before assaulting them when they were out. The initial "court proceedings did not necessarily decide that Bauer did not batter or sexually assault" the woman, a judge ruled on Wednesday, meaning the suit against him can continue.
