BREAKING News: Chicago Cubs pushing again for a lucrative Pete Crow-Armstrong contract Extension…

The Chicago Cubs are making a renewed push to lock up rising star Pete Crow-Armstrong with a long-term contract extension, sources tell MLB insiders. After a standout showing in Triple-A and flashes of elite defense and speed at the major league level, the 22-year-old outfielder is seen as a cornerstone of the teamโ€™s future. The front office is reportedly aiming to secure Crow-Armstrong through his arbitration years and into early free agency.

Talks have intensified in recent days, with the Cubs willing to offer a deal that could exceed $50 million in total valueโ€”potentially making it one of the richest contracts ever for a player with limited MLB service time. The team is betting on Crow-Armstrongโ€™s upside as a five-tool player and centerpiece of their youth movement, alongside prospects like Cade Horton and Matt Shaw.

 

While no deal is finalized, both sides are said to be optimistic. Crow-Armstrong, a Gold Glove-caliber defender, could become the face of the franchise as Chicago eyes a return to postseason contention. A deal could be announced as soon as this month if progress continues. Stay tuned as the Cubs make a bold investment in their future.
