SB Nation's analysis says the lockout would pause offseason business until the two sides reach an agreement, leaving about three weeks for teams to set rosters. It says changes to luxury tax thresholds or other spending limits could affect how Craig Breslow and the Red Sox approach free agency. The piece argues Boston should keep spending regardless of luxury tax penalties.

Taylor Smith recently left for the A's, and Paul Toboni was hired to lead the Nationals last fall. The column argues Dana LeVangie also needs to be replaced.
