This may be the only time I ever "defend" him, but he clearly meant "provably," which is what he wrote when he edited the tweet.

It was a great typo and so many people caught it so fast

Players have done worse in this league that were found guilty mind you and still have been signed or traded for by teams. 

Ok. This is a different time where social media popularity causes a different level of awareness to issues. Bauer was complicit in bringing his situation to light. Teams are signing him because he’s not worth it, in the teams eyes, not because Manfred told them not to sign him.

Bauer is guilty of making a bad decision as a straight white male.

Robinson Cano is hitting over .400 in the same league. It’s not impressive what he’s doing and he’s a massive piece of shit. Also the Angels aren’t contending. What am I missing? 

[OregonLAA]

Also I really hope he sues MLB. That will definitely work out great for him. He’s just so eccentric and smart

I'm sure he sleeps well at night knowing he has so many middle-aged and senior men defending his honor on the internet.

[jsnpritchett]

have we signed him yet

how about now have we signed him

[ScottM]

I can’t believe people still want this to happen. Let’s take a franchise with scandal after scandal after scandal and add Trevor Bauer. Idiots.

Well, considering all that, what's the harm?

We can always use this as a teachable moment. We can sign Bauer and all future players with a sexual purity clause.

This is probably unironically true.

I wasn't being sarcastic.

I love that nobody picking him up. Interesting to see if a contender does it toward August. 
 

we know the angels will not be said contenders.

I'm sure 29 other fanbases have asked the same thing. Yet he still remains unsigned. 

I'm not going to open this can of worms, again. But I have no opinion either way. Could he help the team? Sure. Do I understand why we haven't signed him? Yes.

41-year-old Robinson Cano hit .431/.475/.639 in the same league this year.  Why don't we sign him, too?

Erick Leal went 8-1 with a 2.91 ERA, 80 1/3 IP, 95 K, 1.158 WHIP.  Why don't we sign him?
