Zack Cozart to Play Shortstop in Andrelton Simmons' Absence
7 years agoLos Angeles Angels new third baseman Zack Cozart will start at shortstop in place of Andrelton Simmons, who is nursing a sore shoulder. Cozart will be entering familiar territory, as he spent his time with the Reds at shortstop. The Angels signed the infielder to play third base, however, a position he has been working to learn. With Simmons expected to be back in a few days, expect Cozart to transition back to third base full time. The infielder hit .297 with 24 home runs last season. Expecting those numbers again is a stretch, but he's a nice versatile bench piece to grab near the end of standard drafts.
