Is Trevor Bauer dating Rachel Luba? Rumor itensifies as woman alleges he punched her during sex
Embattled MLB star Trevor Bauer has been accused of sexual assault by a second woman, who claimed that he choked and punched her during sex. The Los Angeles Dodgers player is said to have lallegedly assaulted the Ohio woman between 2016 and 2019 and later sent her death threats as well. According to court records, the unnamed woman had even sought a restraining order against Trevor Bauer in June 2020. Moreover, he allegedly threatened to send explicit videos of them having sex to the woman's family members.
The shocking allegations come barely a few weeks after the Dodgers pitcher was accused of sexual assault by another woman named Ms Hill. She claimed that Bauer allegedly punched and choked her unconscious during 'rough' sex, while also sodomizing her without consent. The first accuser has also been granted a temporary restraining order against Bauer in late June 2021. Meanwhile, the 30-year-old baseball star has consistently denied all the allegations against him, adding that these were attempts to extort him. Though Pasadena Police Department is probing the allegations, Bauer is yet to be charged with any crime. He is presently on paid leave from MLB.

Who is Trevor Bauer dating?
During an interview in 2019, Bauer clarified his stance towards relationships, revealing that he follows three specific rules. He elaborated, "One: no feelings. As soon as I sense you’re developing feelings, I’m going to cut it off, because I’m not interested in a relationship and I’m emotionally unavailable."
"Two: no social media posts about me while we’re together, because private life stays private. Three: I sleep with other people. I’m going to continue to sleep with other people. If you’re not O.K. with that, we won’t sleep together, and that’s perfectly fine. We can just be perfectly polite platonic friends," he added.
Given his approach towards dating, it is hard to imagine Bauer being seriously involved with anyone. However, fans have long speculated that he is dating his sports agent Rachel Luba. The rumor has been snubbed by the player's representative who identified Luba as Bauer's agent and longtime friend.
With regards to the latest accusations, Luba and another agent Jon Fetterolf released a statement from Bauer's end, which claimed him to be innocent. The statement further blasted the alleged survivor, accusing her of lying. "Mr Bauer had an on-and-off wholly consensual relationship with the woman from 2016-2019. Despite multiple requests by Mr Bauer to cease all contact and end their relationship after he left Cleveland, the woman persisted in proactively contacting Mr Bauer in an attempt to continue a relationship. When he refused, she resorted to threats and filed a bogus protection petition as a ruse to demand millions of dollars." She also "perpetrated a fraud on the courts filing for a protection order as a means to threaten and attempt to extort money from Mr Bauer, demanding $3.4 million for her to 'remain silent," claimed Luba and Fetterolf.
Despite the denial from his end, it is uncanny how both the accusations against Bauer are strikingly similar in nature. The Ohio woman alleged that following the sexual assault, Bauer sent her death threats saying that he doesn't feel like "spending time in jail for killing someone...And that's what would happen if I saw you again." While threatening to share their intimate videos with her family, Bauer allegedly texted the woman, "I'd really hate for him to see a video of you getting f**ked."
Though the woman obtained a temporary restraining order in Cuyahoga County last year, she dismissed it six weeks later after Bauer's lawyers threatened her. A police report obtained by the Post reveals that in 2017, the woman tried to show police the photographs of her injuries inflicted by Bauer. But at that time, she herself was arrested for underage drinking.
