Stubbs has 13 doubles, 2 triples, and 14 homers as a more "established" player in terms of major league service.
Cozart is a 2.9 WAR player, Stubbs 1.3.
True, Cozart's 5.2% walk percentage needs improvement. But Stubbs 30.4% strikeout percentage needs a miracle.

Not to mention Cozart's D is far superior to Hamilton's. I know a bunch of people think Ham's D is OK, but I don't, so this is my opinion.
Hopefully Ham's D in center will be close to Stubbs's D soon. That's one thing we can't take away from Drew.
