Chicago Cubs Pete Crow-Armstrong Close to Signing Contract Extension

OH HELL YEAH! The Chicago Cubs and Pete Crow-Armstrong are reportedly close to signing a contract extension just a few days before Opening Day. The two sides have been trying to work out a deal since last year, and after a failed attempt prior to the 2025 season, the Cubs are now closing in on a new deal for Crow-Armstrong that guarantees he’ll be in center field at Wrigley Field for the long haul.

ESPN’s Jeff Passan was the first to report that an agreement between the Cubs and Crow-Armstrong was being finalized on Monday night.
