CLEVELAND — Former Cleveland Indians pitching coach Mickey Callaway was placed on the ineligible list by Major League Baseball through at least the end of the 2022 season following an investigation of sexual harassment allegations.

Commissioner Rob Manfred did not release details of what MLB’s probe determined, but said in a statement “I have concluded that Mr. Callaway violated MLB’s policies, and that placement on the ineligible list is warranted.”

In a report published on Feb. 1, The Athletic said Callaway “aggressively pursued” several women who work in sports media and sent three of them inappropriate photos.

Callaway was a pitching coach during the Indians' run to an American League title in 2016. Callaway was on the Indians' coaching staff from 2013 through 2017. He left the Indians at the end of the 2017 season to manage the New York Mets. 

After two seasons with the Mets, the Angels hired Callaway as a pitching coach. The Angels said Wednesday it has fired Callaway.

Indians owner Paul Dolan issued a statement Wednesday following MLB's announcement.

"In an effort to understand and learn from this experience, the Commissioner’s Office shared with us forward-looking recommendations based on insights they gleaned from the time Mickey Callaway was a member of our organization," the statement read in part. "While we were not provided with details of the report or of individual experiences or accounts, there was no finding against the Cleveland Indians related to the Callaway matter. At the same time, the information the Commissioner’s Office shared reinforces our own conclusion that we did not do enough as an organization to create an environment where people felt comfortable reporting the inappropriate conduct they experienced or witnessed."
