McCourt: Divorce not affecting team

Baseball Betting Lines

03/06/2010 -

GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) -Los Angeles Dodgers owner Frank McCourt says divorce proceedings with his wife are not affecting the team's finances.

McCourt was visiting his team for the first time this spring.

He has had only brief interaction with the media since the 2009 season ended and has made fewer public appearances. With reported allegations that he hasn't paid any income tax in six years, McCourt declined to get into specifics.

He and his wife, Jamie, have been going through a messy divorce and there has been speculation that it is the reason the team made few offseason moves.

McCourt spent time signing autographs and said fans only were interested in talking about baseball.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
