For most of the season, it seemed clear that Pete Crow-Armstrong was going to be an MVP candidate once the end of the season arrived. There is less than one month before the end of the season, and it seems that Crow-Armstrong has been relegated to being a platoon player. It was a shift that started on Tuesday night when Kevin Alcantara got the start in center field against a left-handed pitcher.
It was also immediate confirmation of the reason why Alcantara will likely be with the Major League team for the remainder of the season instead of Owen Caissie.
