The Los Angeles Dodgers have released Trevor Bauer, less than a week after they designated the pitcher for assignment.

The Dodgers couldn't find a trade partner for Bauer by Thursday's 2 p.m. ET deadline. They owe him his remaining salary of $22.5 million in 2023 but will save $720,000, the Major League minimum, if another team decides to sign him.

Bauer, who will turn 32 on Tuesday, hasn't pitched since he first faced sexual assault allegations in the middle of the 2021 season.
