The charges he's facing are permanent bans from the US. Even lesser charges, being related to a minor would fall into a permanent ban territory.

If the charges are dropped AND the US grants him a visa, MLB and the Rays will then need to decide what they each want to (try to) do.
What grounds could the US restrict his visa status if the charges are dismissed?

Dont let that fool you though. Trevor Bauer is still out of the league. Wander somehow skates in the DR and he is still blackballed from the MLB I assume.
"Diloné represents William Reyes González, the father of Franco’s alleged victim, who is a civil party to the court case."

The father of the victim is suing Wander Franco for $15 million Pesos.

The father wants money. He's determined to get it through the courts or through parties involved. Follow the money

There's a lot of evidence to sort through in this case. The dude is accused of paying the parent of a minor to allow him to have a relationship with a 14 year old child.

The only way Wander Franco gets hot again is if he is dropped by the Rays. And Yankees, Dodgers, Cubs, or Red Sox signed him.

A WANDER FRANCO 2019 Bowman Chrome Red Refractor RC Rookie Auto 5/5 BGS 9.5/10

sold for $1,800 a few weeks ago at auction.

Assuming him dating an underage girl and his stats remained the same what does that card sell for?

For literally anything. He's not a US citizen and the feds have broad discretion to turn him away.

Wander will never set foot inside the US again lol

wander is accused of being a child molestor! dude is definitely not coming back to MLB.

So, personally, I don’t see his cards demand ever exceeding supply. Fire sale prices at best.
Bauer does not belong on this list. He was the victim of an attempted extortion and was proven innocent.

Not surprised there are people on BO still defending this pedophile. Imagine how much money some of you could have recouped if you bailed when the story first hit like I told you to.

Peoples problems with Bauer are not because he was destroyed by a disgusting con woman, it’s because he did what she wanted him to do to her and he liked it.
