    Does being the highest-paid player ever buy you more or less scrutiny for using foreign substances? Asking for a friend.

    I’d definitely say he was, especially to a team with infinite money like the Dodgers.



    I think Bauer’s performance will hold up now that he’s started using whatever it is to grip the ball and skyrocket his spin rate.

    Hats off to him and Luba, he managed to sign a three year deal that is actually just three one year deals.
    Yep. And all of the options are his!

    How much do the Dodgers have to pay in luxury tax? They are way over.

    I will say it’s been fun watching Nightengale flail on this story.

    So really it's a 2 yr deal and they added the 3rd yr to make the AAV lower for the luxury tax.

    Looks like fans believe the Dodgers will trade Price (Blue Jays?) to offset some of the salary going to Bauer.

    Re: Bauer signs with Dodgers

    Having Bauer on the Reds for an abbreviated season was like dating a gorgeous and smart woman with a spectacular body. It’s great when it’s happening, but you know you’re out of your league and it’s just a matter of time before she moves on.

    I will root for Bauer at least for a while. I liked his act.

    Re: Bauer signs with Dodgers

    For getting our pitcher the Dodgers need to give us their shortstop.
    ...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.

    Hopefully, there's a decent NCAA season to get some good scouting done.

    I was hoping for anyone but the Dodgers and Cardinals. That's crazy money but wow what a super team in LA. Looking forward to rooting for the Washington Generals, oops I mean Cincinnati Reds this summer.

    Nice. Reds get a pick and after 8 years, I no longer am compelled to root for the guy.
