I don’t know (yet) if Pete Crow-Armstrong has the same instincts Javy Báez had during his tenure with the Cubs; that pure baseball sense and ability that earned him the El Mago moniker. But PCA does have the tools and the guts to be just aggressive as Javy ever was. Take tonight, for example.
After stealing second base earlier in the game, PCA turned a swinging bunt (and should-be out) into absolute chaos, reaching second out of pure will and hustle.
We saw a little bit of this energy misplaced at the end of last season, but he’s harnessing it better this year. And I’m thinking we haven’t even scratched the surface of what he’s going to try on the bases and in the field. He is chaos.
