"Trevor Bauer's Exhibition Game Against Dodgers Prospects Draws Little MLB Scout Attention"

Trevor Bauer, a former Cy Young winner, pitched three scoreless innings against Dodgers minor leaguers while playing for a pay-to-play barnstorming team, expressing frustration at not being given another opportunity to pitch in the big leagues despite serving his suspension and being cleared in the legal system. Bauer has offered to accept the minimum salary from an MLB team but has not received any offers yet. After being released by the Dodgers, he spent 2023 in Japan and is now seeking a return to the MLB, but no scouts from major league teams attended his recent game at the Dodgers' spring training complex.

Antonio Brown's Retirement Comeback Plan Delayed Again.

Antonio Brown's plan to end his retirement and play for the Albany Empire of the National Arena League was put on hold due to paperwork issues. Brown, who owns the team, could have overridden the rule and played, but he chose not to and said he wanted to set a good example for younger players. Brown's decision to return to the field is financially motivated, as he hopes to sell upward of 10,000 tickets for the game he plays in. The NAL commissioner confirmed that there are no rules against an owner playing for the team he owns.

Cardinals Crush Dodgers with 7 Home Runs in Blowout Win.

Dodgers pitcher Julio Urías gave up a franchise-record four home runs in a single inning during a 16-8 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals. Despite a late comeback attempt, Urías' implosion was too much to bear for the Dodgers. The left-hander has now given up 14 home runs in 10 starts this season, tied with the Kansas City Royals’ Jordan Lyles for most in the majors. The Dodgers were unsure if Urías was tipping his pitches, but manager Dave Roberts acknowledged that the Cardinals "seemed like they were on everything."
