DateQuestionAnswer
2012-02-07 13:00:00Zack Cozart's power ceiling is _____? 20 HR? .475 slugging?
(Johnny from San Diego)
I'm a big Cozart fan, but that's getting a bit over excited. (Kevin Goldstein)
2012-02-02 15:00:00Zack Cozart: Buy or Sell?
(Faztradamus from At a red light)
Buy, at the right price. Decent combination of power and speed, and while the AVG won't be great, he should get a clear shot at everyday playing time this year. What would you pay for 12-15 homers, 15-20 or so steals and a .260 average? (Cory Schwartz)
2012-01-10 13:00:00What can we expect Zack Cozart to become this season? Down the road?
(Rodney from Tinley Park, IL)
Cozart is a better real-life player than fantasy because his best tool is his glove, but he has above average power and speed and could develop into a 25-25 player down the road. 15-15 this year wouldn't surprise me at all. Scouts don’t like his approach at the plate or skill with the bat a whole lot (though his strikeouts rates are manageable), so the batting average upside could be a bit limited. (Derek Carty)
2011-07-07 13:00:00Walt Jocketty finally called up Zack Cozart to try and address the Reds' black hole of suck at SS. The rotation is still a big question mark with Arroyo falling apart after 5 innings and Volquez having no clue where the plate is. Has Jocketty shown too much patience in not addressing the Reds issues, just enough, too little?
(TheRedsMan from Chicago)
Too much, particularly with Cozart, not that I think he's really a great solution. Still, when your shortstops have hit .226/.274/.271 on the season, you owe it to the team to try anything. Speaking of which, if you're the White Sox, do you let Adam Dunn just put up 600 at-bats of what he's been doing? That would be a season for the books. (Steven Goldman)
