I don't agree on Cozart being a "sure out." It's probably just Redszone hyperbole, but maybe we shouldn't be lumping these two guys together so much.
Cozart has 32 doubles this year, to lead all MLB shortstops. He also has 15 homers and a slugging percentage over .400. Now, yes, his OBP is subpar and perhaps he's not ideal leading off, but he's been productive on offense for a SS.
I think Phillips leading off and Cozart hitting second would be a reasonable one two punch. I'd prefer a lefty OBP man, but with the current group, this would be acceptable to me.
You are right. He's just a streaky player just like most rookies. I like his bat, just not up at the top. As someone else said, there aren't many other options.

Hopefully this happens tomorrow with Votto back. There is no reason when Votto plays that Phillips should not be leading off.

Even when he walks Stubbs doesn't look too good. Those pitches were too close to take, honestly. I'll take the baserunner though.

I'd say the same if it were anybody else, they were too close to take.

Awesome AB there, gave Stubbs zero pitches to steal.

Frandsen robs Phillips. Bare handed play. Runner to 3rd.
