Sports’ writing in
the 21st century is all about cute, as witness this sentence in
today’s Tribune sports’ section: “Looking
ahead to next June’s draft, which is now the [White]Sox’s World Series, it’s
just a shame the Sox still aren’t worse than the Phillies and Giants.” Oh, that’s a good one, not.
Mr. Columnist must’ve been on a tight
deadline, or else he would’ve listed at least some of the top prospects in the ’18
Draft Class; surely, he wasn’t too lazy to do a little digging on Google. This is hardly the first time this
self-acknowledged dealer in “snark” has banged his lose-lose-lose-to-get-prospects
drum. I only wish he would say when the
Sox should go into win-win-win mode.
Maybe he did it on his podcast.
