Or do they move Francisco to COF? His power bat certainly could handle left or right, and he is been nothing short of horrible at 3rd this year. I think I would put Fraizer at 3rd and Francisco in left or right.

Cozart still isn't listed on the Dragon's website.

He's listed on this one though:

Interesting. Hopefully we see him in the lineup soon.

That's an even better idea, good thinking. That may just be what the Dr. ordered.

If I remember right, Cozart had arguably the best hands in the draft, but not so good of a bat, correct?

Yes.

Cozart has perhaps the best set of hands in this year's draft class and shortstops who can catch the ball are often hard to find. His lack of speed may hurt his range as the game speeds up and there is a question as to how much he'll hit at the next level. Some see him as a shortstop who can hit in the two-hole, but he also may just be a utilityman who hits ninth.
