Right. His being blackballed from MLB has more to do with who he is as a general human being than with how he chooses to engage in complied sexual intercourse. If he was seen as good chemistry guy, he’d be getting the BOD right now from some team.

I think most people are also pretty repulsed he gets off by abusing women.
 
I disagree. Bauer seems like a strange guy that doesn’t make him a bad guy. He’s just different. He had his day in court. Chipper cheating on his wife is worse than some unmarried guy being into kinky sex with willing participants. You welcomed chipper, Ozuna etc back with willing arms so why doesn’t Bauer get the same treatment?

This wasn't a little kink. Bauer put a woman in the hospital with a head injury (among other things) I don't care if she agreed to rough sex because she was trying to extort him. That **** is incredibly disturbing.

I was stunned when we gave up Contreras. I had a few people here mock me as he was never going to be very good.. I still don't understand that trade.. I like Murphy and all, but why did we give up soo much for him.

water under the bridge, but he always looked like a guy who was going to be a really good player. has a big arm too. no idea about his framing, but I bet it is at least average at worst.

Our old friend William Contreras rocking a 1.115 OPS through the first 2 weeks of the season.

I still think a healthy Murphy is worth it, but I was shocked the Braves made the trade. They were also clearly high on Contreras.

AA wanted an elite arm at catcher with the new base stealing rules

seems like a steep price to throw out 2-3 more base runners.

Not just throwing out. Teams are less likely to steal with an elite catcher behind the plate.

I still don't know that it would justify the cost, but I just thought it should be noted.
