MESA, Ariz. — Pete Crow-Armstrong celebrates his 24th birthday Wednesday. The icing on his cake will be knowing he’s on the verge of signing a long-term contract extension that will make him a Cub into his 30s.
A Gold Glove center fielder with elite speed who hit 31 homers and stole 35 bases for the Cubs in 2025, Crow-Armstrong is close to an agreement with the team that will be announced Thursday at Wrigley Field, a source said.
