Marc Normandin | Defector: Ownership apparently planned for a lockout all along. In their eyes, pressuring the union is the most effective way to get the players to take the league’s offer, but that’s likely wishful thinking. MLB owners have locked out the players four times in the past, and they weren’t successful in any of those instances.
Rob Mains | Baseball Prospectus $: Until recently, relievers have been considered to be failed starters. The gap in talent between the rotation and the bullpen is shrinking by the year even if the surface-level numbers don’t necessarily show it.
