Trevor Bauer Joins Japanese Showcase Team in Bid for MLB Return

The former Dodgers pitcher, suspended over sexual assault allegations, seeks a comeback by playing against Dodgers minor leaguers.

Trevor Bauer, formerly suspended MLB pitcher, is set to pitch against Dodgers minor leaguers with the Japanese showcase team Asian Breeze.
Bauer has not played in the majors since June 2021, following allegations of sexual assault, but was never charged with a crime.
After serving a reduced suspension, Bauer played in Japan last season, seeking a return to MLB.
Bauer's participation with Asian Breeze is seen as a step towards catching the attention of MLB scouts.
Despite his controversial past, Bauer insists he has served his suspension and deserves another chance in the majors.
