Trevor Bauer, former Cy Young winner in the National League, has earned the starting nod for the South team in the Mexican League All-Star Game.
Though his major league future is seriously in doubt, former National League Cy Young winner Trevor Bauer is tearing it up in the Mexican League this year - earning the starting nod in the league's All-Star Game.
El líder de carreras limpias, ponches y juegos ganados, será nada más y nada menos que el abridor de la Zona Sur…¡TREVOR BAUER! 😈🔝The 33-year-old Bauer is currently 5-0 with a 1.50 ERA in Mexico. He's struck out 62 batters in 42.0 innings, which spans seven starts. Former big league stars Robinson Cano, Yasiel Puig and Luke Voit are also in the league, and were also named All-Stars.
Bauer clearly still has the stuff to pitch in the major leagues, but he's also clearly being kept out. He was suspended in 2021 over a domestic violence allegation and ended up missing 182 games in total between 2021 and 2022. Teams likely don't want to take the PR hit on signing him, despite the fact that he was never charged with a crime and the credibility of some of his accusers has come into question. He remains a major league free agent.
