With the ability to hit for power, contact, and run the bases, Chicago was a hard team to get out. Furthermore, the depth of their lineup was extremely impressive.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_lffs232u7\"><strong>MORE<\/strong>: Should Cubs Pull Trigger On Offseason Target Walker Buehler After Shock Release?<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_xfm6bs5kl\">Unfortunately, that has taken a bad turn in the second half of the campaign. The Cubs are scoring a run less per game, and it\u2019s easy to see why they have struggled to win games at times.\u00a0Without the pitching to make up for it, some losses for Chicago haven&#8217;t been pretty.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_hqb8eimby\">One of the reasons for their struggles offensively was their two All-Stars slumping at the same time. Both Kyle Tucker and Pete-Crow Armstrong have had terrible second halves of the season, and going into a funk was far from ideal.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_ub61n7cnh\">Tucker&#8217;s struggles might have been injury-related, but Crow-Armstrong&#8217;s are a bit more concerning. Despite the struggles, he is still nearing a great milestone, but it could have been a lot more.<\/p>\n<div class=\"\" data-mm-id=\"_kervvqwo8\">\n<div>\n<figure data-id=\"_kervvqwo8\" data-mm-type=\"image\"><canvas><\/canvas><picture><source \/><source \/><source \/><img title=\"Chicago Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong\" alt=\"Will Cubs' Pete Crow-Armstrong's Likely 30\/30 Season Be A Disappointment?\" \/><\/picture><\/figure>\n<p>Sergio Estrada-Imagn Images<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_tbw22cla2\">Before the All-Star break, the talented center fielder of Chicago was firmly in the mix in the NL MVP conversation. In the first half of the year, he slashed .265\/.302\/.544 with 25 home runs, 71 RBI, and 27 stolen bases.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_gj4ncvwks\">With production like that, it felt like Crow-Armstrong would not be able to accomplish a 30\/30 season, but a 40\/40 campaign felt realistic as well. Unfortunately, even as September closes in, the All-Star still has yet to accomplish the feat of a 30\/30 season.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_r13vwchyf\"><strong>MORE<\/strong>: Chicago Cubs Game Preview (8\/30\/25)<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_pqqo1mvtj\">Since the break, he has slashed .222\/.264\/.385 with three home runs, 12 RBI, and four stolen bases. While the power numbers are way down, he has also struggled to get on base to be a factor on the bases paths.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_k7ncthi7h\">Even though he has been able to get over the 30 stolen base plateau, he is still two away from reaching the 30\/30 in home runs. While he should reach this impressive milestone, the 2025 campaign will feel like it could have been a lot more for Crow-Armstrong, barring a crazy September.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_m7pbof5mo\"><u><em><strong>The Latest Chicago Cubs News<\/strong><\/em><\/u><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Chicago Cubs are coming off an impressive win against the Colorado Rockies in which their offense finally got going.\u00a0 Even though this is an offense that ha<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":85897,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-85896","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Will Cubs&#039; Pete Crow-Armstrong&#039;s Likely 30\/30 Season Be A Disappointment?
