As an ex-Ohioan and lifelong Tribe fan that currently lives in DFW, I would love to see the Rangers pick him up. I’ve always been a fan of watching him pitch and compete. He’s definitely a controversial guy that the league never liked because he spoke his mind instead of toeing the line. Wish they would bring him back.

There is a great deal te public doesn't know about Trevor but is common knowledge in the relatively small world of MLB. That includes players (who don't want what he would bring to the clubhouse) and hundreds of female employees valued by their employers. Owners want to win and make more money. The fact that he hasn't been signed speaks volumes.

The Cardinals could definitely use him. I have suspicions that it has to do with the whole sticky substances thing. He was very vocal about it and called out cheaters. MLB had to react to that and then had to implement new rules because we all know they are always very reactive. Very strange, for sure.

No one will be signing Trevor Bauer, and it's such a shame! There is no greater injustice than Trevor Bauer not being able to pitch more in Major League Baseball. Nothing happening in the world today is worse than that. I mean, what an awesome role model the guy is. It makes me so mad! Just because MLB knows more than the general public about additional accusations, and they're bad -- so what?! He pitches the ball good, and women are liars, amIright?

Bauer isn't worth the headache for most teams. He has always been extremely outspoken and this is not something most teams want to deal with. Former Bills punter Matt Araiza went through a similar situation and was later signed by the Chiefs because he doesn't run his mouth to the media all the time. Bauer likely won't be signed because of his constant outbursts.

For what it's worth, Bauer's main accuser did a long interview on the Breaking Balls podcast. She alleges that during the private MLB hearing, more victims came forward and that MLB got their hands on video(s) Bauer made of him abusing some of the women. The MLB investigation is private so there's no public corroberation available but if true, it explains why MLB teams won't touch him with a 10 foot pole.

He will never sue MLB, because in such a case there would be what's called "discovery." That means MLB would be able to investigate and bring to light and into a courtroom more scummy Bauer behavior, and he doesn't want that. Ask yourself this: If he's really been treated so unfairly, and his accusers are all liars (including the ones that MLB knows about but which aren't public), and he's lost $50 million because of all this, why isn't he suing? Duh.
