What’s going to happen to the Minor Leagues during the lockout?

With Major League Baseball locking out the players and the first week of the season, at least, cancelled, you might have some questions about how this is going to affect the minor leagues. I’m going to try to answer those questions the best that I can.

Will the minor league season start on time?

Yes! This is the easiest question to answer. The minor leagues will continue to play as scheduled. I realize that this is something that many of you already know, but it is well-worth emphasizing: Minor league games will happen as scheduled.
