The Cubs are on fire, riding a 25-12 surge since early June and led by MVP candidate Pete Crow-Armstrong, whose all-around brilliance is turning heads and energizing the clubhouse. With offense humming, defense sharp, and Crow-Armstrong dominating in wins above replacement, the team’s confidence is sky-high—even as pitching woes linger. Fans are buzzing for deadline moves to cement a championship run, but Crow-Armstrong’s optimism is unwavering: he’s ready to welcome any new pieces and believes they’ll only make the Cubs stronger. The real test? Staying hot until August 4th, when the trade deadline hits—and until then, they’re playing with fire, fueled by grit and greatness.
