Looks like Jed Hoyer isn’t the only one who’s going to have something cooking this offseason. Had things gone according to plan, the Cubs would actually be preparing to play in LA with Cade Horton on the mound for Game 1 of the NLCS. As it is, they’re back at Wrigley to put a bow on things before heading to wherever they call home in the winter.
Cubs superfan Sam Bernero is known to many for her candid pictures of Cubs players and staffers arriving at Wrigley or leaving for road trips. She even got a nice feature in the Tribune just before the end of the NLDS. Her latest round of pics came as players dropped by the clubhouse to pick up their stuff, which in Horton’s case included…a crock pot?

The righty had his trusty slow cooker slung under his arm while balancing a set of Crate & Barrel bakeware — perhaps a gift from his wedding last December — atop his rolling suitcase. That’s a pretty precarious position, especially on the brick walkways, and I’d normally be worried about that stuff getting jarred loose. Of course, it’d still be another 4-5 days before the Cubs admitted anything was broken.

Even though Horton appears to be quite familiar with the small appliance, I’d suggest using some of those cooking condoms that go over the removable stoneware to make cleanup a breeze.
