The parking lot tycoon contends that the rejection forced the cash-starved team into bankruptcy.

The league said in a motion filed Friday with the court that it has no intention of approving a sale of the team's media rights, and that any attempt to sell the rights without its approval might result in the team's termination from the league.

MLB's motion sought the early termination of an exclusivity period for McCourt to propose a reorganization plan to emerge from bankruptcy.

The Dodgers in a statement called the motion "meritless" and said it would file a response to the League's motion with the court early next week.

"The alternative offered today by Major League Baseball really amounts to an unnecessary and value destroying distressed sale of the Los Angeles Dodgers," the Dodgers said.

The case is In re: Los Angeles Dodgers LLC, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, District of Delaware, No. 11-12010.
