Yokohama BayStars right-hander Trevor Bauer (34) was excluded from the first-team entry on the 31st. He started the second game of the opening series against the Chunichi Dragons on the 29th, pitched six innings, and missed two days. He is expected to join the rehabilitation team on April 1.
Clearly it is not a scheduled adjustment. If coordination such as rest was needed, the announcement should have been made immediately after the game. Speculation is rampant as Yokohama club did not reveal the reason for the cancellation of the registration in detail. After his first appearance, his condition deteriorated and the possibility of injury is mentioned. Some fans even said that Bauer might be returning to the United States. It's an unexpected situation.
There are circumstances in which speculation is possible. The match against Chunichi on the 29th was delayed due to rain. The game began at 2:30 p.m., 30 minutes behind schedule. It was held in chilly weather at the end of March. It was not a good environment for the pitcher. Although Bauer said in an interview after the game that the delay and weather were not a problem.
After a four-day break, he was scheduled to throw according to the starting rotation of the Major League Baseball. Like when I suddenly came to Japan two years ago. According to this schedule, he was likely to take the mound on the last day of the three consecutive away games between the Hanshin Tigers and China at Kyocera Dome in Osaka on the 3rd. Bauer ended the season in late August 2023 when he was injured while handling a hit against Hanshin. Two years ago, he went down to the second team to readjust his condition.
Bauer, who returned after two years, announced his good health in front of 33,567 home fans on the 29th. In the top of the first inning, Chunichi struck out three batters with a swing and miss

It was regrettable that the walk he gave after two outs in the top of the second inning. With two outs and a runner on first base, he allowed one run after receiving consecutive hits from the lower batters in the 7th to 8th. This loss has been a drag.
Yokohama's batters were tied up. He only had two hits. We lost 0-1. In the opening game, he scored a 5-0 Youngbong victory and suffered a Youngbong defeat in a day. Bauer lost even after pitching six innings of one run. Yokohama won 2-1 on the 30th and finished the opening series with a 2-1 victory.
Bauer went 10-4 with a 2.76 ERA in 19 appearances in 2023. As the winner of the Major League Cy Young Award, he impressed as the main starting pitcher. Last year, he waited for a Major League call in the Mexican league, but failed to re-enter the big league. He turned to Japan when it became difficult to enter the Major League due to the sexual assault problem that was a problem during the LA Dodgers.
