Pedro Strop rocks Ninja Turtles pajamas as Cubs prove everyone should fly in their PJs

Cubs wear onesies for flight home from L.A.

Look good, feel good. Feel good, play good. So goes the old adage from an accomplished philospher named Prime Time. And, it appears, no one's about to be playing better than the Cubs.

Over his 12 years as an MLB manager, Joe Maddon has developed a reputation for encouraging his players to rock some pretty creative formalwear for team trips and Sunday night's flight home after a series against the Dodgers will be no exception, as the Cubs will be wearing pajamas as they travel.

According to MLB.com's Carrie Muskat, Kris Bryant is set to wear a 2X Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle onsesie while a bunch of his teammates are going to blend into their surroundings with camouflage pajamas.

"Jason Hammel and James Russell both had camouflage-colored fleece one-piece PJs, and Travis Wood also went camo, but his had a back flap that warned he was "buck naked." Justin Grimm's girlfriend found a shark onesie, complete with teeth, although the first one they ordered was a woman's size and he had to return it."

Flying in pajamas is the only way to go, really. Win or lose, the Cubs know they're going to be super comfy on their flight back to Chicago.
