NEW YORK (AP) - Major League Baseball has taken no steps to discipline players mentioned in the Mitchell Report since the detailed account of drug use was released three months ago. That makes it increasingly unlikely players will be punished before opening day.
No players have been called in for investigatory interviews since Cleveland pitcher Paul Byrd spoke with baseball lawyers Dec. 17, several attorneys with knowledge of the disciplinary process said Wednesday. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.
The interviews are the first step in baseball's disciplinary process.
