Angels hope third baseman Kaleb Cowart's bat catches up to his glove

Kaleb Cowart has already shown in 10 games that he is ready for the big leagues defensively. The Angels third baseman has displayed good lateral range and a strong and accurate arm, and he’s charged several slow rollers and made off-balance throws to first base.

“You absolutely see the potential,” Manager Mike Scioscia said of Cowart, who was called up from triple A on Aug. 18. “From the defensive perspective, you couldn’t ask much more from a major league third baseman. He’s made every play. He’s made a lot of tough plays look easy. He has great tools.
