Crow-Armstrong went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a double, a steal and an additional run scored in Monday's 4-0 victory at Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
The Chicago center fielder tallied his team's final run of the contest with a 414-foot solo shot off Pirates reliever Cam Sanders in the sixth. Crow-Armstrong previously nabbed his 35th base of the season, becoming the first Cub to reach that mark since Nico Hoerner swiped 43 in 2023. Through 601 total plate appearances, Crow-Armstrong is now slashing .248/.290/.486 with 29 homers, 87 runs scored and 88 RBI.

Crow-Armstrong went 1-for-2 with a walk, a run scored, two RBI and two stolen bases in Tuesday's 6-1 win over Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Since sitting out two games last week to clear his head amid a slump, Crow-Armstrong has started to get going at the plate. Over his last four contests, the speedy outfielder has gone 4-for-11 with three runs scored, three stolen bases and four RBI. Crow-Armstrong did miss Sunday's contest with a bruised knee, but he was back as the DH on Monday and playing the field Tuesday, so it looks like a non-issue moving forward. The 23-year-old is now tied for sixth in the majors with 34 steals on the season, and Crow-Armstrong has added 28 home runs for good measure, putting him within striking distance of his first career 30-30 campaign.

Crow-Armstrong (knee) will serve as the Cubs' designated hitter and cleanup batter in Monday's game in Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Though fellow All-Star outfielder Kyle Tucker (calf) will remain on the bench for a fifth straight game, the Chicago lineup will be bolstered by the return of Crow-Armstrong, who will rejoin the starting nine in a non-defensive role after sitting out Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Nationals due to a right knee contusion. The Cubs haven't indicated how soon Crow-Armstrong might be ready to resume patrolling center field, but he could be back in on defense Tuesday if his knee provides no complications when he's at the plate or running the bases during Monday's contest.

Crow-Armstrong (knee) could return to the Cubs' lineup Monday in Atlanta, Ryan Herrera of AllCHGO.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Crow-Armstrong was absent from the starting lineup in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Nationals while dealing with a bruised right knee. Manager Craig Counsell said following the contest that the outfielder might be able to return to the lineup Monday, and that the team will "see how he's doing tomorrow," before making that decision.

Crow-Armstrong (knee) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Crow-Armstrong left Saturday's game after fouling a ball off his knee in the sixth inning, and he'll take a seat for Sunday's series finale. The Cubs have deemed the injury a right knee contusion, which means Crow-Armstrong should be considered day-to-day. Kevin Alcantara will patrol center field Sunday.

Crow-Armstrong was removed from Saturday's game against the Nationals with a right knee contusion, Ryan Herrera of AllCHGO.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Crow-Armstrong was able to finish his at-bat after fouling a ball off his knee during the sixth inning, though he was replaced on defense when the Cubs took the field in the seventh. The Cubs are officially labeling his injury as a contusion, which suggests he didn't suffer any significant damage from the foul tip, though he may sit out a game or two as a precaution.

Crow-Armstrong went 2-for-3 with a run scored, a stolen base and two RBI in Friday's 11-5 win over the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
After being held out of the lineup in each of his last two games amid a slump, Crow-Armstrong returned Friday with a much-improved performance. The speedy outfielder is still batting just .206 over his last 10 games, and he's gone deep just once in his last 37 contests, but Crow-Armstrong is too talented to keep out of fantasy lineups. He's now up to 32 stolen bases on the season, and he's added 28 home runs for a full stat line.

Crow-Armstrong is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
The slumping Crow-Armstrong had already been held out of the lineup for Tuesday's 4-3 win while southpaw Joey Wentz toed the rubber for Atlanta, but the left-handed-hitting outfielder will now remain out of the starting nine against a right-hander (Bryce Elder). Cubs manager Craig Counsell seems to be taking a similar approach with Crow-Armstrong as he did with Kyle Tucker a few weeks ago, when Tucker was benched for three straight games for a mental reset amid a rough stretch at the plate. Tucker has bounced back well since returning to the lineup, and the Cubs are hoping that the brief break allows Crow-Armstrong to return to the All-Star-level production he delivered earlier in the season. Since the start of August, Crow-Armstrong is slashing just .163/.217/.231 with one home run and two stolen bases over a stretch of 30 games.

Crow-Armstrong is starting in center field and batting seventh in Monday's game versus Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Atlanta is starting right-hander Spencer Strider, marking the lowest spot in the lineup Crow-Armstrong has hit against a righty since early May. The 23-year-old finished August having slashed just .160/.216/.230 with one home run and two steals.
