Most baseball owners and executives have (wisely) declined to weigh in on the distinct possibility of a lockout when the Collective Bargaining Agreement expires in December. When players are willing to talk about it, they maintain their union's position: they are vehemently against a salary cap.
The Dodgers are already and will continue to be at the center of this debate. They have the largest payroll in baseball, they don't care about the luxury tax, and they show zero signs of stopping. Owner Mark Walter basically confirmed that Andrew Friedman and Brandon Gomes have carte blanche when it comes to offseason spending.
