MEXICO CITY.- As expected, as in other cases, Major League Baseball placed Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer on administrative leave for seven days, before applying a sanction to who has already been exonerated by the court.
For the American justice there was not enough evidence to merit a conviction and he dropped the charges of sexual assault on February 8, to the delight of the “fan” clubs of the Cy Young winner in 2020.
But the ruling by commissioner Rob Manfred is missing, in the name of the good consciences of baseball that put candles on “Judge Landis”, and everything indicates that Bauer, in the freezer since June 28, 2021, will have to wait to return to exercise the profession that made him a millionaire.
Unless they apply the same to the Cuban Yasiel Puig and Roberto Osuna, who did not suffer the fate of some involved in such delicate matters, the most recent, the Dominican Marcell Ozuna (Atlanta).
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts is not very excited about the possibility of having Bauer, who in 2021 was 8-5 and 3.59 when he was stopped, but he does not close the doors completely either.
OBSERVATIONS: In the third week of March, which begins today, all the teams in the Mexican League will be in preseason, except for the Tigres de Quintana Roo and Saraperos de Saltillo, who have summoned their staff for March 21.
