Chicago Cubs rising star Pete Crow-Armstrong is making headlines — not for what he did on the field, but for what he just said online.
In a fiery comment that has fans buzzing, Crow-Armstrong weighed in on the ongoing D4vd controversy, saying:
“She lied about her age and said she was 19 — bro, how do you not know she’s a kid? D4vd is so weird.”
The MLB outfielder’s blunt take spread like wildfire across X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, with clips of his remarks quickly racking up millions of views.
Fans immediately jumped into the debate. Some praised Crow-Armstrong for calling out what they see as unacceptable behavior, with one fan writing:
“Pete just said what everyone else was too scared to say — respect.”
Others, however, argued that the situation is complicated and that Crow-Armstrong’s comment might oversimplify what happened.
Teammates reportedly backed him, saying they weren’t surprised to see the outspoken young star take a stand. “Pete’s always been real,” said one Cubs insider. “He speaks his mind, and that’s why people connect with him.”
The controversy surrounding D4vd has been dominating headlines for weeks, but Crow-Armstrong’s comments have now pushed the conversation even further into the sports world, putting additional pressure on the artist to respond publicly.
Whether D4vd chooses to address Crow-Armstrong’s comments remains to be seen, but one thing is clear — this debate just got a lot louder.
