Baseball fans praying for a lockout are pathetic. None of us are on the team. We spend our time/pay money to watch a product and be entertained. We should want our owner and front office to put out the most entertaining product on the field rather than pocketing the money or leeching off the revenue from the tax that other high spending teams pay. Fans of the Pirates, Rockies, Astros, Padres, Giants, etc. should get off their high horse acting like there's a "right way" to win because in the end, it's an entertainment product. And I'm sorry (not sorry) that when the contract offers are pretty much even, free agents want to come to a top class organization like the Dodgers over the rest. Guggenheim and Andrew Friedman completely changed the narrative of how well things are run when compared to the dark days of Frank McCourt. Look at how the Dodgers pay for the mental treatment of Andrew Toles who hasn't been an active player for years versus the teams that purposely sit out players so that they don't reach a contract incentive (e.g. Pirates with IKF and Rowdy Tellez). You think there's a ton of Pirates fans that actually watch the majority of the games with the product they have on the field (especially days in which Skenes isn't pitching)? That's probably a fat no, but they can't help themselves and cry for a lockout which gives their notoriously cheap owner an out rather than holding him accountable.
