How Cubs Star Pete Crow-Armstrong Transformed Into An MVP Frontrunner

Sammy Sosa told Pete Crow‑Armstrong he’d hit three homers — and PCA did it, then added two more Sunday for five on the weekend.
Crow‑Armstrong (38 HR) is now a full‑blown MVP favorite — elite defense, leading WAR, and on pace for a rare 40‑40 season.
Shohei Ohtani’s pitching is on hold with knee/biceps issues, which has opened the door for Crow‑Armstrong to overtake him in the MVP race.
