Sickening. That does not sounds like way beyond bdsm stuff, which I think is supposed to be about mutual pleasure and engagement and occur when both parties are conscious. Her accusations paint him as doing very violent things to her without her consent, including knocking her out and penetrating her anally while she was unconscious and without consent. It sounds like sexual assault, not just assault.

Agreed. This seems to go beyond what Bauer is suggesting and with hospital trauma reports and photos, he's fucked.
So does this end his career should he be found guilty (has he been charged?) It would seem Rape (among so many other things) is on the table as well if her accounts are accurate.
If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

So Bauer is still scheduled to pitch on Sunday. Roberts says they were told by MLB to proceed as usual until notified by the league.
If he does pitch, I can't imagine the reaction he'll get from the Fans in Washington. It should be historic.

they had no choice - Bauer goes on 7-day admin leave
Smart, it would have been a disaster to let him take the mound without some kind of investigation first.

To clarify my post, though, I just meant that I believe it was MLB, not the Dodgers, that was slow-playing his suspension/leave/whatever. My understanding, admittedly not a super strong one, is that MLB deals the cards when it comes to situations like this and not the individual teams. I imagine that's due to the CBA, but I'm not sure about that, either. I'm just going off of public statements made.
