Cozart Emerges as Key Versatile Dodger Fielder
Paul Cozart, a 20 year old rookie from St. Louis Virginia, has become a steady factor for the Thomasville Dodgers since joining from the Miami Sun Sox. He has played every outfield position and shortstop, with Bartley praising his defense and aggressive, versatile style. Cozart’s hot streak from May 27 to June 4 boosted his batting average to .330, including 17 hits in 42 at bats. He shows relentless energy on the bases and continues to adapt across positions as the Dodgers seek stability.
