PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (CBSNewYork/AP) — The head of the major league players’ union says he wasn’t aware of any concerns raised by suspended Mets reliever Jenrry Mejia about his legal defense.
Mejia drew a lifetime ban from Major League Baseball last month after testing positive for a performance-enhancing substance for the third time.
Last week, Mejia told The New York Times that he was the victim of a “conspiracy” by MLB and the union should have done more him.
“They should have found something to appeal for,” the pitcher said.
