Fehr Vows To

December 29, 2006

Washington Post - MLB Players Association Executive Director Donald Fehr said in a statement yesterday he would consult with legal counsel to determine how to keep the records of 100 positive steroid tests out of the hands of federal investigators.

"Under a search warrant seeking information about only 11 baseball players, confidential records for every player were seized, along with confidential records of thousands of other people with no connection to baseball, including many with no connection to sports," Fehr said in the statement. "We will consult with our counsel, and then determine what our next step should be in our fight to protect the Constitutional rights -- including the basic right to privacy -- of our members."
