Pete Crow-Anderson is a fantasy baseball OF prospect sleeper and minor leaguer to know. Read our MLB prospects outlooks for fantasy baseball rookies and call-ups.
PROSPECT: Pete Crow-Armstrong, OF, Chicago Cubs
ANALYSIS: The Mets selected the defensive stalwart affectionately known as PCA with the 19th selection in the 2020 draft. Crow-Armstrong had a long history with national exposure, playing on 12U and 15U national teams, but struggled in the few games he got the spring of 2020, leading to him dropping from a sure-fire top 10 pick to the Mets.
After being traded as part of the deal that sent Javy Baez to New York in mid-2021, PCA has been incredibly impressive. He had the rare quadruple-double last season across both A-ball leagues in the Chicago system, tallying 20 doubles, 10 triples, 16 homers, and 32 steals.
Crow-Armstrong is arguably the best defensive outfielder in the minor leagues, and his speed will absolutely be a fantasy asset. Early season success at Double-A Tennessee (.343/.395/.571 in nine games) should not be waved off, but he is still polishing up his plate discipline.
VERDICT: If PCA is available in your league, grab him now. He could certainly push for major league time in 2023 and will certainly compete for the starting center field spot with the Cubs going into the 2024 season.
