A youth baseball company owned and created by the Major League Baseball Players Association (MLBPA) is under federal investigation for how it has allocated resources, according to ESPN .

Players Way, based out of Florida, spent at least $3.9 million but has not hosted many live events while barely clearing “six figures” in revenue since its 2019 inception, per the report.

The criminal investigation reportedly is being run by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Brooklyn, which issued the recent indictments for Chauncey Billups, Terry Rozier and Damon Jones , along with syndicated crime members, in the NBA gambling scandal.

Players Way launched in 2019 and its website states that it’s the “official youth development initiative” of the MLBPA and is supported by current and former players.
