I'm planning on some in-person looks at the Winston-Salem Dash this week as they play a six-game series at Bowling Green, which is about an hour north of me.
The Dash haven't played particularly well in their trips to Kentucky, although that's more due to the fact that the Hot Rods are the Tampa Bay Rays' High-A affiliate, and TB teams tend to excel at every level. The Dash are 2-11 in Bowling Green since Minor League Baseball's great realignment, and have been outscored 78-39.
Nevertheless, if there are any prospects you're curious about besides the usual suspects, let me know.
