Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig said today there is no deadline for decisions on the Los Angeles Dodgers’ financial situation and that he’s “comfortable” with the pace of his investigation. Selig said he met with Dodgers owner Frank McCourt during two days of meetings in New York involving owners of all 30 Major League Baseball teams. Tom Schieffer, a former U.S. diplomat and president of the Texas Rangers, has been installed by Selig to run day-to-day operations of the Dodgers while baseball investigates the finances of the team and McCourt. The review includes a look at a 17-year, $3 billion television rights deal that McCourt wants to sign with News Corp. (NWSA)’s Fox Sports. McCourt has accused Selig of trying to force him out as an owner, according to the AP.
