We are going to get some Cubs roster moves today. Nate Pearson is heading back down, which means a pitcher is coming up (any chance Javier Assad returns in a relief role?). It’s also possible that Miguel Amaya is activated as soon as today for the series in Toronto.
Pete Crow-Armstrong, like many of his Cubs offensive brethren, is in a deep funk. He last homered back on July 23, and since then, has hit just .182/.233/.291/46 wRC+ with a whopping 31.7% K rate. Sahadev Sharma dug in a bit on PCA’s struggles here at The Athletic, and, while the whiffs are surely a problem, a big piece is simply that he isn’t crushing mistake pitches like he had been. That can come and go a bit, especially in a small-ish sample. “Nothing is really wrong,” Crow-Armstrong said, per The Athletic. “I just suck at hitting baseballs sometimes right now. That’s OK. It doesn’t feel OK when I’m on the field and want to help my team win. You’d like to be the kick-starter or game-changer …. There’s definitely a lot that we’ve looked at swing-wise. We’ve gotten back to really good positions. I think it’s just one of those situations where one barrel, one blooper — if I get that one knock, then I get that knock. If not, then I just gotta go out and play center field.” The bat speed story is definitely something to follow on Kyle Tucker, but it isn’t obvious whether it’s related to the finger:Tucker’s top 10 fastest 7-game bat speed stretches (*=post–finger injury). Four of his fastest runs came after the June 1 injury: Mar 29–Apr 5 (73.3) Jun 14–23 (73.1) * Jul 22–30 (72.7) * Apr 29–May 5 (72.6) May 9–16 (72.5) Jun 26–Jul 3 (72.4) * Apr 7–14…
— Brendan Miller (@brendan_cubs) August 11, 2025 Bat speed can be highly correlated to power outcomes, and we know that power production is the area where Tucker has been slumping. So, again, something to watch one way or another.
