Chicago Cubs, Pete Crow-Armstrong

Chicago Cubs All-Star Pete Crow-Armstrong is one of the best young players in baseball and isn’t afraid to speak his mind. In a recent profile with Wayne Drehs of Chicago Magazine, the 23-year-old took some shots at the Los Angeles Dodgers and their fans, saying that the people of Chicago are better “baseball fans.”

“I love Chicago more and more,” Crow-Armstrong says. “The people are great. They aren’t just baseball fans who go to the game like Dodgers fans to take pictures and whatever. They care.”

Growing up in Los Angeles, Crow-Armstrong’s father was a Cubs fan. The Cubs didn’t draft Crow-Armstrong — the New York Mets did in the first round (19th overall) in the 2020 MLB Draft, and got traded to the Cubs in the deal that sent infielder Javier Baez and right-hander Trevor Williams to the Mets in 2021.

Pete Crow-Armstrong will get his chance to face the Dodgers early

Crow-Armstrong hit .247 with a .768 OPS and hit 31 home runs in 157 games last season. He also set career highs in RBI (95) and steals (35), but struck out too much (155). One of the focal points of the Cubs’ offense, Crow-Armstrong needs to have a great overall season, not just a great first half, for the Cubs to be successful.

Crow-Armstrong won’t have to wait long for his comments to come back and bite him, as the Cubs will travel to Los Angeles for a three-game series from April 24-26. The only other time in 2026 the Cubs will play the Dodgers is in August, from Aug. 3 to Aug. 5 in Chicago.

The goal of every team in the National League this season is to end the Dodgers’ reign as World Champions, and Crow-Armstrong’s comments will help fan the flames of the Cubs-Dodgers rivalry for this season.
