Last month, Major League Baseball and the MLB Players Association jointly agreed to extend Trevor Bauer’s paid administrative leave period through April 16 while MLB continues its investigation into assault allegations made against him by a woman last year. On Wednesday, multiple reporters (including Jon Heyman of the New York Post) relayed that the league and union had jointly agreed to extend the leave again through next Friday, April 22.

That seems to push back any determination on his status for at least another six days, but Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times reported this afternoon that Bauer is “exploring whether there is in fact a binding agreement in place.”
