Nope, this is not an April Fools’ gag. I’m really writing a recap on South Side Sox.
As tradition dictates, I am handling the Opening Day coverage, as I will a week from today with the home opener. Thursday coverage is normally going to be Sam Sherman’s, who has yet to publish at SSS but shouldered the main load of games as our beat writer covering the White Sox for Sports Illustrated last summer. You’ll dig him.
Kicking off the season with the exquisite writing only your humble scribe can provide not only throws down the gauntlet for the rest of the staff that follows, but it also allows me to use this gamethread to preview our season of coverage.
