OT: The Trevor Bauer Case

[HOF Auto Rookies]

Things are going to get pretty ugly and bad for MLB, and many others, if this video he provided is indeed accurate to the timeline. As easy as it is to not like him, this will be interesting to see how it plays out...

False assault allegations is nothing new, it's been in the tool bag for a couple of decades. What's unfortunate is it takes away from true assault victims.

True, but I'm looking at it more from what will happen to his career, lost salary and endorsements, can or will anything happen to MLB itself?

This is a high profile case for a very popular athlete with a decent sized social media following. He signed the largest AAV in history, so I'm sure he'll be after quite a few people for defamation and getting some money as well.

Deshawn Watson is doing just fine even in worse case for bauer

One point in time doesnt really prove much....she had pretty significant injuries and i thought he had a text to her asking if she was alright,....if going to do crazy stuff, and probably going to need a crazy girl to do it, you need to get stuff in writing and maybe agree to have it videotaped...

the wierd thing about that video is he wears a eye thing, he cant sleep at his young age?

I wouldn't draw too many conclusions from a short video.

First Bauer denied hitting anyone. Then he admitted that he beat a woman unconscious and badly bruised because that's what she wanted. Now appears he's back to saying nothing happened.

I think he's a bad bad guy with a lot of mental problems, but all we have really heard so far is spin by both sides.

Not going to land on the side of man who had sex with an unconscious women if that's what's ultimately substantiated.

As far as a defamation suit, discovery in lawsuits is very broad. I strongly suspect this dude is not going to want anyone to pull the curtain back on his sexual activities and take a deep dive.
