## Resource

The Rockies’ seemingly cautious offseason—loaded with short-term deals and arbitration settlements—is suddenly looking like genius prep for a potential MLB lockout. With the labor deal expiring in December 2026, teams are scrambling to lock down talent before trades freeze. Colorado, with players like Castro and Lorenzen on expiring contracts, could become a trade hub, swapping veterans for prospects to accelerate their rebuild—while avoiding the financial risks of long-term commitments.
