| Summary: Cozart is a big-bodied arm with a starter’s look and a short, deceptive arm action that helps him hide the ball effectively. The fastball sits 91-93 and has touched 94, holding velocity deep into outings — a trait that keeps the rotation path alive and speaks to the durability projection in the large frame. A two-plane slider in the mid-80s that flashes above-average gives him a legitimate secondary to work with, and a curveball in the mid-70s rounds out a three-pitch mix with enough shape variety to project as a starter’s arsenal. The short arm action creates natural deception that allows the stuff to play up, and the overall delivery gives the profile a clean foundation to build from. The arsenal and frame both point toward a starting role, and the velo durability gives that projection credibility. Too early to put a firm ceiling on a profile that is still developing, but the ingredients are present for the evaluation to sharpen considerably with more looks. | |||||||||||
