Cubs improve power ranking as Pete Crow-Armstrong shines this month

The Chicago Cubs have moved up in power rankings from No. 16 to No. 12 following recent performances. Key to this rise is Pete Crow-Armstrong, who has had a remarkable June with a batting average of.437 and five home runs in a span of 17 games. Last week, the Cubs won a series against the Colorado Rockies 2-1 and split a series with the Toronto Blue Jays, which was shortened due to rain. The Cubs are set to face the New York Mets this week, with Monday's game postponed due to weather but with three additional games scheduled.
