    @metsrewind I voted for Tom Seaver, but I wanted to vote Jerry Koosman also. Koosman was just so good in the World Series.

One more thing …

The Los Angeles Dodgers cut Trevor Bauer.

The team released the following statement:

The Dodgers organization believes that allegations of sexual assault or domestic violence should be thoroughly investigated, with due process given to the accused …Two extensive reviews concluded that Mr. Bauer's actions warranted the longest ever active player suspension in our sport for violations of this policy. Now that this process has been completed, and after careful consideration, we have decided that he will no longer be part of our organization.

A REMINDER OF WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN

The Dodgers have until 2 p.m. (et) Thursday to find a trade partner. If they can't, Bauer will be placed on unconditional release waivers.

Bauer is a pariah in the game.

Proud to be a Dodgers fan today. He has no place in that or any other franchise. Be gone. Dodgers cut ties with Trevor Bauer, star pitcher accused of abuse washingtonpost.com/sports/2023/01…
