'It's tough now': Cincinnati Reds' Connor Curlis remains ready with no minors season in sight

There is no start date in sight for the minor league baseball season. Players were unsure whether they would continue to receive their weekly $400 stipend beyond Sunday.

Unlike Major Leaguers, who could begin their season in early July, there are way more questions than answers at this point for minor leaguers. There are complications with starting a season in so many towns across the country, especially when most minor league teams rely on attendance and advertising for most of their revenue.

Where does all the uncertainty leave minor league players?
