Red Sox/MLB 2022 REGULAR SEASON II - THE RED SOX ARE OVER .500 (34-29) - GET THE DUCKBOATS READY!!!!!!!!!

[McGarnagle]

Dropped the hammer.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

Is it retroactive though? Since he's already basically served a year on leave.

Edit: Jon Heyman tweeted that it is not retroactive and starts today, lasting until 2024. Nice. f*** bauer.

 

[McGarnagle]

2 years plus the more than half of last year which he's already missed is really excessive for a case that was not brought to charges by the police considering how lenient the league has been on things like the Astros cheating and other domestic violence acts. But Bauer is such an obnoxious piece of shit that I don't think anyone feels bad for him at all.

It'll get appealed and lowered to just this year through arbitration I'm sure.

 

[Mr Cartmenez]

Dropped the hammer.

What a travesty

 

[McGarnagle]

This is the kind of man Trevor Bauer is

 

[KesselBuiltMyHotrod]

Bauer's suspension isn't too harsh, previous suspensions have been too lenient.

 

[Alicat]

This right here.

He may not have been charged criminally but doesn't mean he's innocent.

 

[McGarnagle]

This right here.

He may not have been charged criminally but doesn't mean he's innocent.

And he's not helping matters by trying to defame his accuser and supporting other accused rapists like Deshaun Watson on twitter.

He's just like Schilling, he's his own worst enemy because he can't keep his mouth shut and he has zero filter or tact.

 

[quietbruinfan]

Where is Bobby D? If they benched him, this is an outrage?!

 

[McGarnagle]

Franchy flying out to the warning track, like he never missed a beat.

 

[McGarnagle]

Christian!

 

[McGarnagle]

Watching the 2022 Red Sox is like pulling teeth

Actually, it kinda does.....Maybe not in the court of public opinion.

No, it really doesn’t. There’s a difference between what happened and a “not guilty” verdict

 

[Donnie Shulzhoffer]

Last I checked it is innocent until proven guilty.

 

[Alicat]

No.

What it means is that the DA's office won't be charging him as they don't feel that they can meet the burden of proof the law requires of the prosecution.

It also appears that there are new accusations against him.

 

[CDJ]

Legally speaking sure. Doesn’t mean he didn’t do anything wrong. Burden of proof for sexual assault cases can be tough. It’s almost always a he-said/she-said

He definitely punches women in the face. He just claims that they wanted it. I have a hard time believing that. Maybe they wanted rough sex, I very much doubt they wanted to be beaten viciously. Which clearly happened.

I hear ya. But Amber Heard throws a wrench in that. Which is why we have stick to the basic principle.

true, she’s certainly a good example of why things must be evaluated on a case by case basis.

I’ll say this much- Trevor Bauer DID NOT poop the bed. So he’s got that going for him. Just has everything else going against him. He probably won’t face legal repercussions due to the nature of those cases but the league didn’t suspend him for that long for nothing

OJ got off despite definitely killing two people. Even acquittals don't mean you're definitely innocent. It just means the other side failed to prove the case to 12 people.

Also, prosecutors often don't bring cases to trial unless they're sure they can win. It's a judgement call, sometimes for selfish reasons, sometimes for practical reasons, sometimes for unfortunate reasons.

OJ trial jurors admitted after that they were setting him free regardless because of the Rodney King trial. Not to mention the Duke Lacrosse case where the prosecutor knew they were innocent

Stick to the principles

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

That is a massive human on the mound for the Orioles right now.

 

[quietbruinfan]

Ya know, I have a slight inkling this team can't hit. At least the awesome Bobby D is back!

 

[KesselBuiltMyHotrod]

It's really hard to listen to Massaroti for a whole game.

I don’t even dislike his breaking down of what’s happening, that voice is just nails on a chalkboard lol

That's the sad part. He's not a terrible color guy, I just can't stand listening to him.
