The 74-year-old McLane says he's retained the New York investment firm Allen and Company to help him unload the team he's owned since 1992. KRIV-TV first reported McLane's agreement with the investment firm. Steve Greenberg, the son of Hall of Fame slugger Hank Greenberg, is the firm's managing director.
