[BA] 18. Collin Cowgill
Arizona has few legitimate prospects who have significant playing time above
the high Class A level, but Cowgill performed well for Mobile in his third
professional season. He's a versatile outfielder who can play all three
positions with average defense. Cowgill sports the best outfield arm in the
system, combining strength with accuracy. It's his top tool and grades at 60 or
better on the 20-80 scouting scale. Cowgill also is a slightly above-average
runner and an instinctive basestealer. He made great strides in his approach
at the plate this year, becoming more selective and working on his swing
mechanics. He wraps his bat almost like Gary Sheffield and has a high finish,
and he sometimes struggles against good fastball velocity. Cowgill's
intangibles are off the charts. He's competitive and has a great work ethic,
and scouts frequently observed him working out before games. He probably won't
have enough bat for an outfield corner or enough speed to play center field
everyday, so Cowgill profiles better as a versatile fourth outfielder, but he's
a good bet to have a major league career. He is sometimes compared to Cody Ross
, primarily for the grinder mentality and the fact that both players bat right
and throw left. He'll head to Triple-A this year with the chance for a callup
when the need arises.
