Ian Eskridge and James Fox hash through the White Sox and Charlotte Knights opening weekend on this episode of the FutureSox podcast. A lot of things of interest happening. There have been a few moves made already a few days into the season. A trade with the Yankees, and Eloy's first injury of the season has already spurred on a roster move with Lenyn Sosa getting relocated to Chicago, and now a polarizing re-signing of Mike Clevinger. What else can you expect? Ian and James also go through and give small previews of the rosters at the rosters of AA and below before their full preview and conversation with Andrew Murphy, the PBP of the Winston-Salem Dash, on Wednesday.

Ian Eskridge and James Fox are joined by Mike Rankin for a Sunday night FutureSox Podcast. The White Sox signed Robbie Grossman.

The squad is at currently at 42. With the White Sox letting go of some of the older free agent signings, who will be left to take a spot on the 26 & 40 Man rosters?
