On an affiliate preview edition of the FutureSox Podcast Ian Eskridge and James Fox were joined by the play-by-play voice of the Winston-Salem Dash, Andrew Murphy. They begin the show with Andrew breaking down the "Prom" series that wasn't supposed to happen against the Rome Emperors.

The gents go through the rotation, hitting all the big points - all returning arms, the step up from all guys from previous years, and Tanner McDougal is still nasty. The pen has shown some ebbs and flows early, but there are some good arms coming through Winston. 

Versatility is a mainstay in the Winston position player group, and Andrew breaks down all of the guys in the lineup. Pat Leyland has a lot of useful guys, and they run through them all.
