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.
