## Key points

- The Yankees face an early playoff exit and roster questions.
- A likely lockout could freeze transactions from 1 December.
- Their level of activity before the deadline remains uncertain.

## Summary

The Yankees head into a shortened and uncertain offseason with another early playoff exit to assess and a roster to reshape. General manager Brian Cashman and his counterparts meet in Las Vegas this week, where teams may begin planning or making moves sooner than usual ahead of a looming lockout.

The collective bargaining agreement is due to expire at 11:59 p.m. on 1 December, after which major league transactions are expected to freeze. With just over three weeks until the likely work stoppage, it is unclear how active the Yankees will be; they largely stayed out of the market before the previous lockout.
