The Major League Baseball and the National Basketball Association will be selling their shares in daily fantasy sports companies DraftKings and FanDuel as the possibility of legalized sports betting in the United States draws closer. |
|||||

|||||

On the other hand, MLB is looking at “potential changes” in its partnership with DraftKings. The timing of the unloading of the stocks comes at a time when the leagues have been aggressively lobbying to have an active role in taking wagers on its games. |
