PCA all the way up to a 113 wRC+, 20% better than the league average for center fielders. While being the best defender in the sport.
A top 5-ish most valuable player in the NL to this point.
still think something needs to be done about him but shoutout to Dansby Swanson for finally delivering and getting a huge hit to tie the game. it will probably go under the radar since PCA walked it off right after, but that was huge from Dansby
Has any player been scrutinized the way Pete Crow-Armstrong has this season?
He’s made some baffling mistakes, sure, but it feels like every single one becomes national news.
It’s wild seeing a player of his caliber draw this much criticism.
and its not only this guy that i’m talking about. ive seen multiple tweets from Cubs fans saying pete needs to be benched and im wondering if they even watch the games. The Cubs are bad right now, theres plenty of things to be frustrated about and I get that. PCA isnt one of them
the haters can’t be reasoned with at this point so i don’t even bother with them. but seeing actual Cubs fans say that Pete should be benched is pretty annoying. He’s easily been the best performer on the team over the past 2 weeks and probably even the past month and a half
@jackjxdd yep. starter will get to 80 pitches then Craig just says fuck it and keeps them out there like he’s got a no hitter. i get that weve had injuries this year and our bullpen has been depleted at times but come on. Shota, Taillon, Rea do not need to get to 100 pitches every start
