Giants outfielder Harrison Bader’s season is in jeopardy after a scooter crash involving a fire engine reinjured his foot, prompting the team to suspend his pay until he can return. This isn’t his first rodeo with scooter mishaps — he was once suspended for 19 games in college over an alcohol-related incident. Now, with plantar fasciitis already complicating his recovery, the injury may sideline him for the entire 2024 season. Under his two-year, $20.5M contract, Bader still owes $10M next year — and his current performance hasn’t been up to snuff. The team’s move raises eyebrows, since players typically can’t lose pay for injuries unless they breach contract terms — but this accident adds another layer of drama to his comeback.
