MLB and MLBPA agree to extend Trevor Bauer’s administrative leave through April 16

LA Times  

Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer prepares to throw against the Colorado Rockies during a spring training game in March 2021. Major League Baseball and the players’ union agreed Thursday to extend Bauer’s paid administrative leave through April 16, into the second week of the regular season. Bauer was cleared last month of criminal charges after he was accused of sexual assault last June, but MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred has the power to suspend him if the league rules he violated the league’s sexual assault policy. Administrative leave is not a disciplinary action nor does it in any way reflect a finding in the league’s investigation.” The league is expected to suspend Bauer. Bauer, as of Thursday, will be on administrative leave then, guaranteeing that the Dodgers will begin the 2022 season as they ended 2021: with Bauer away from the team staring ahead at an uncertain future.
