Chicago Cubs<\/a> center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong is off to a strong start for 2026 with a hypothetical home run. According to a report by the Chicago Tribune<\/a>, he snapped up a sleek ninth-floor penthouse condo<\/a> in Chicago’s Loop for $1.195 million in January. The 2,200-square-foot, two-bedroom unit reportedly boasts high-end touches like Venetian plaster columns and a Calypso quartzite gas fireplace. It sold after price cuts from $1.495 million in 2024 to $1.195 million last November, reports the Chicago Tribune.<\/p>\n

Entering his third full season, Crow-Armstrong eyes more outfield duty after Kyle Tucker’s exit, NBC states. He craves playoff baseball at Wrigley Field. “I saw what bringing playoff baseball back to the city meant,” he said, according to NBC\u2019s report. “That’s an easy, immovable goal. The f— are you playing for if you’re not trying to play in the playoffs and win the World Series?”<\/p>\n

On his rookie deal, the outfielder wants a long-term stay. “I’ve made it clear I want to be here for as long as they want me,” Crow-Armstrong said, as reported by NBC. “I want what’s best for the team. I’m cool with being under team control and being here. League minimum aint too f—— bad.” He welcomes talks between the Cubs and his agents to balance team needs and the free-agent market.<\/p>\n
