Eggplant, Avocado, and Beet are "fruits". I think peas are as well. Very weird.

 

Mother#%@#% peas?

 

I may never have eaten a vegetable in my life at this point.

Pretty sure a pea is a seed -- and the pod the fruit.

 

A beet is a root vegetable.

 

Avocado is definitely a fruit.

[Derwood]

they're all delicious

[Ding Dong Johnson]

I leave for a couple of days, and this is what I come back to. Way to go.

[mookie]

Yeah, we got a good team.

Peas are legumes.

Matt Szczur, Dayan Diaz and Michael Brenly were optioned to minor league camp.

That's great, but are they fruits or vegetables?

Groan-worthy Szczur salad joke goes here.

since we didn't get Escobar this offseason, it hopefully doesn't matter if they're fruits or not.

 

edit: not only was raisin faster, but his was better. :hello:

He wasn't, but that also would've been a funny response.

McNutt, Raley, Watkins and Cabrera optioned to AAA, Whitenack optioned to AA and Struck to minor league camp per Muskat.

Cabrera continues to disappoint me. I keep hoping that flash in 2012 at AAA was real.

Aren't they going to try and make him a starter again? Makes sense he's going back to AAA then.

[davell]

Cabrera getting cut this early IS a disappointment. He's just not getting anything over the plate. Starting or relieving, you obviously have to be able to throw strikes.

[Thed Hoyerstein]

I think I need to start eating carrots, assuming those are still considered vegetables.

[Cubswin11]

Garza threw 25 pitches from 45 feet today and is scheduled to do the same tomorrow. Stewart and Vitters ran the bases today and Stewart is expected to be back in the lineup Thursday.

The whole damn thing is a root.

That's my thinking. After a rough go early on, they're likely scrapping the idea of him in the big league pen and going to get him stretched out as a starter in minor league camp ASAP. McNutt and Watkins are probably being sent so they can rack enough as much PT as possible.

when/if the Cubs win the World series Kyle will be typing up a post about how the next season is doomed and they won't be able to repeat before the first champagne cork is popped.

 

Worse yet, the cork will hit Starlin Castro in the eye, blinding him causing him to stumble into Anthony Rizzo who will in turn tear his ACL beyond repair trying to step out of the way, thus stepping on Javi Baez' achilles, severing it with his clete. Oh the horror.

The joke was about Kyle, which is a thing, not crazy Cubs bad luck superstitious crap, which is not a thing.
