The Chicago White Sox say the team has fired director of player personnel David Wilder along with two other scouts in the club's Latin American operation.
The team says Victor Mateo and Domingo Toribio also were terminated after a two-month investigation by Major League Baseball's Department of Investigations.
Findings from baseball's investigation have been turned over to federal authorities. The White Sox say they were fired "for actions in Latin America that were violations of club policy and standards" but aren't elaborating.
General manager Kenny Williams says he can't comment further.
Wilder is a longtime baseball man. In 2005, he interviewed for Boston's general manager job before Theo Epstein returned to the Red Sox.
