CROWDED AGENDA FOR BASEBALL'S MINI- WINTER MEETINGS

     MLB owners meet next week in L.A. for what BASEBALL WEEKLY's
Paul Pascarelli calls "what used to be the annual winter
meetings."  On the owners' agenda:  The sale of part of the
Angels to Disney, which is expected to "overcome some owners'
opposition and finally be formally approved"; the sale of the
Pirates, which will probably be delayed; the labor situation,
with owners hopeful of having a union response before them soon;
a report from the committee studying revenue-sharing, although
any agreement from full ownership is unlikely; a discussion of a
proposal for some interleague play in '97; a presentation of
details on the new TV package, with a key "side benefit" being
the large budget Fox is prepared to spend on hundreds of
promotional spots with players (USA TODAY'S BASEBALL WEEKLY,
1/10-16).
