I know the market is slow, but it's odd that we aren't even seeing any rumors about the NL Cy Young winner. Part of that is the market, and part of that is Bauer's personality. (Love him or hate him or both, he's not a wallflower...)
The Mets got Carrasco and the Jays just spent their money on Springer ... though maybe they would still be in on Bauer after missing out on Brantley. The Yankees are trying to stay under the luxury tax and Bauer probably isn't interested in a really long contract that stretches out the yearly cap number. Now I'm seeing rumors that the Dodgers may get in on Bauer if his price drops. He may end up getting his 1-year deal because he HAS to, not because he WANTS to.
