2025 Player Outlook

Crow-Amstrong will head into the 2025 season as the everyday center fielder for the Cubs, and his defensive prowess will give him a lengthy leash in case there are any struggles at the plate. He hit 10 home runs and went 27-for-30 on stolen base attempts last season. There’s even more upside in the stolen base department, especially if PCA can improve upon last year’s .237 average and .286 OBP! He was much better in the second half of last season, only striking out 22.5 percent of the time and posting a .310 OBP over his final 63 games. There’s a lot of potential with PCA, and this is a good Chicago lineup, so there’s optimism for PCA to join the 15/30 club this year, and while his average won’t be great, think .240ish, he’ll be a better asset in leagues that value AVG compared to OBP.
