After a period of quiet in the Dr. Lorena Martin case, today we got a non-judicial update from Major League Baseball:

This is a significant development, of course, and a positive one for the Mariners. Epstein Becker Green is a noteworthy and premiere firm in Employment Law, and their involvement is a good sign for the investigation’s credibility. They also aren’t, as far as I know, generally engaged by Major League Baseball—which helps establish credibility that the investigation truly is independent.
