A person familiar with a letter sent from the union to Major League Baseball tells The Associated Press the players' association has found agent Scott Boras did not violate union rules when his company made loans to a Dominican prospect.Players' association head Michael Weiner said the union responded Dec. 23 to a letter sent by the commissioner's office expressing concern about the loans, following a New York Times report on them in November.
Neither Weiner nor Rob Manfred, MLB's executive vice president of labor relations, would comment on the contents of the letter.
But a person familiar with it, speaking on condition of anonymity because the letter has not been made public, said the union concluded it had authority over agent matters and that Boras' actions did not break rules in place at the time.
