Chicago Cubs outfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong just threw gasoline on the Cubs-Dodgers rivalry, and I am here for it.

Ahead of the Cubs' series at Dodger Stadium, PCA didn't hold back about Los Angeles sports culture, calling it a "see-me city" where fans show up "to look good" rather than for pure fandom.

"Yes, there are die-hard Dodgers fans," Crow-Armstrong acknowledged in an interview with the Los Angeles Times. "But it's a see-me city, man. It's a Lakers city where people show up to sit courtside and look good. And I view it the same way here."

Ohhhh boy. You can already hear Dodgers fans sharpening their pitchforks.

Look, is PCA completely wrong? No. Anyone who's been to a Lakers game knows there's a celebrity row where half the people are on their phones. We've all seen the late arrivals at Dodger Stadium. LA is a city that loves being seen.

But is he playing with fire by saying this out loud, right before a series in LA? Absolutely. And I love it.

This is what baseball needs. Not corporate-speak. Not bland quotes about "respecting the opponent" and "taking it one game at a time." We need players with personality. Players who say what they actually think. Players who aren't afraid to poke the bear.

And trust me, Crow-Armstrong just poked the bear.

Dodgers fans are going to make his life miserable this series. Every at-bat, he's going to hear it. Every fly ball he chases in the outfield, they're going to let him know exactly what they think of his comments.
