Nicknamed the ‘Flying Kid’ for his dazzling defense and fearless speed, Pete Crow-Armstrong is quickly becoming more than just a prospect — he’s a spark of hope for the Chicago Cubs. With every highlight-reel catch, he’s writing a bold new chapter that fans believe could define the team’s future.
CHICAGO – Having been left off the postseason roster last year, Pete Crow-Armstrong is not going to give up. He returns to the 2025 season with a clear statement: I didn’t come here to sit on the bench. I came here to be the center of attention.
Soaring from missed expectations
As the Cubs enter the 2025 season, Pete – once called the “rough diamond” in the Kris Bryant deal – knows that the clock is ticking. But instead of letting the pressure get the better of him, he explodes. In the first 66 games of the season, Crow-Armstrong has posted a .282 AVG, 17 HR, 21 SB, and enough WAR to make the entire league take notice.
“I need to remind everyone: I’ve been here since last year, and I’m not the kid who just runs,” Pete shared.
Playing with his heart – and his feet
As one of the widest-ranging centerfielders in MLB, Crow-Armstrong regularly makes incredible catches – leaps that seem to fly. But what endears him to fans is the way he puts his all into every run, every swing, every slide.
“I’ll never be a ‘normal’ guy – either I play hard or I don’t play,” Pete says.
A deep connection to Cubs and fans
Pete Crow-Armstrong grew up in a family with an artistic bent – his mother is actress Ashley Crow (who played a baseball player’s mother in Angels in the Outfield). But it was in Chicago that he found his true stage.
In the stands, Cubs fans are starting to wave “PCA = Pure Cubs Attitude” banners. And the coaching staff is not hiding their excitement:
“He has the energy of a young player, but he also has the character of a guy who has been playing for 10 years,” said Coach Craig Counsell.
The future: All-around player or new Cubs icon?
Pete doesn’t talk much about his personal achievements, but it’s clear that the path he’s on could lead to many things: Gold Glove titles, MVPs… or even further – becoming the new face of a young and fearless Cubs generation.
Pete Crow-Armstrong isn’t just flying off the field – he’s flying into Wrigley Field history
With his infectious smile, fiery play and heart for the crowd, PCA is more than just a young talent – he’s a Cubs icon in the making. And if you ask him who he wants to be in MLB?
“I don’t need to be the next guy. I just want to be myself – and do something that people will never forget.”
