It's insane that Trevor Bauer is having a 3rd year (and probably close to the end of his prime) stolen from him and he did nothing wrong. A guy who made the best of it and decided to be a true ambassador of the game to Japan, learning the language, embracing the culture, doing everything right.

Meanwhile you've got Ohtani who doesn't even respect America enough to learn a few cursory phrases of English in the 6 years he's lived here literally wire a heckin bookie $4.5 million and nothing happens.

And I actually really like Ohtani and hope he doesn't miss any games. Just wanted to point out how hypocritical and unfair MLB is being (as usual).

Eh... I choose to believe him. Why? Because I want to believe him.

Any team that wants to is free to sign Bauer tomorrow. He isn't banned by MLB
