Major League Baseball has extended Trevor Bauer's paid administrative leave another seven days, beginning Friday, amid the investigation into sexual assault allegations against the Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher.

MLB announced the extension, which was widely expected, on Thursday after reaching an agreement with the MLBPA.

Bauer's original seven-day paid leave was set to expire Friday. He has declined to appeal MLB's decision to place him on leave, but his side has denied the allegations.
