Trevor Bauer throws big accusation at MLB for not letting teams sign him

During a conversation with Nati Sports on social media, the former LA Dodgers pitcher revealed the reason for his absence in the majors despite his willingness to play for the league minimum.

"Well one team told us it's not their decision, it's an mlb decision," Bauer wrote on X.

Bauer also said that one team didn't sign him as they didn't want MLB to dig into their past.

"One team told me I was ‘too expensive’ even though I offered to play for minimum, another team told us they have covered some stuff up in the past that they don’t want the media digging into to find out about…" he wrote.

July 2021 was the last time Bauer was seen on a major league mound. In the wake of sexual assault allegations, the league first put him on administrative leave and subsequently suspended him for 194 games for violating the MLB's joint domestic violence, sexual assault and child abuse policy.

After playing for the Yokohama Dena Baystars in 2023, Bauer was expecting a major league contract this offseason. However, despite his name being cleared from every lawsuit filed before, teams have shown reluctance to sign.
