For being the best defensive center fielder in recent memory, Pete Crow-Armstrong doesn’t always give us a ton of obvious highlight reel catches. At least not relative to how good we know he is, and how much we’re used to see diving catches by the “best” outfielders in years past.

I hope you know enough about PCA by now that you also know everything I just said is far from an insult.

You see, the thing about PCA’s defense is that he is SO GOOD that most of his spectacular catches look almost routine. For example, this brilliant catch in the opening series:

Pete Crow-Armstrong recorded his first 5-Star catch of the season yesterday.This ball of the bat off Jacob Young had a 5% catch probability, requiring PCA to cover 68 feet in 3.9 seconds to make the sliding grab. pic.twitter.com/XjbaOEmQEt

It’s hard not to watch that and feel momentarily like the slide was superfluous … but then you remember that the ENTIRE REASON he’s even there to make the catch and the slide is because PCA plays the ball so perfectly. The average outfielder doesn’t even reach the ball at all. A very GOOD outfielder has a chance at a diving play. But PCA gets there and maybe/maybe not has to slide. That’s kinda the whole point here about just how good he is.

Another example from last night, and I knew watching live that this catch was going to be far more impressive in the data than it looked:

Pete Crow-Armstrong did it again yesterday, snagging this Mike Trout rocket that had a catch probability of just 35%. Nobody makes plays look easier (so easy that many don't believe the numbers). Just check out how fast he's already moving when the camera gets to him, his… pic.twitter.com/5Qoq7dPZMU

A ball hit like that toward an outfielder positioned like that is caught barely a third of the time. But for Pete Crow-Armstrong, it looks relatively routine. How? Because his reaction off the bat is as fast as anyone. That reaction is directionally perfect. The route is seamlessly efficient. So he’s right there to make a relatively easy catch – he already did the hard parts when our eyes are barely paying attention.

It’s way, way, way too early for stuff like this, but as Mike Petriello implies, it’s also fun:
