Cubs get Pete Crow-Armstrong MVP prediction that is bold, but very possible originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Chicago Cubs are having a good 2026 season, and one of the main reasons why is that Pete Crow-Armstrong is breaking out further as one of the best players in baseball.
But this season he's not just simply playing very well; he's an actual MVP candidate. Winning the award over Shohei Ohtani might seem difficult at first glance, but it's something that's within range for PCA this season.
Zachary D. Rymer of Bleacher Report is predicting that Crow-Armstrong not only beats Ohtani for the NL MVP award, but that he will "bury" Ohtani in the race for the achievement this season. It's a bold prediction, but it could actually happen.
"Pete Crow-Armstrong will bury Shohei Ohtani in the NL MVP race," Rymer predicts. "... For one thing, it sure doesn't sound like Ohtani will be able to pitch for the Los Angeles Dodgers again before October."
