Indians Acquire Collin Cowgill, Designate Nick Hagadone

The Indians have acquired outfielder Collin Cowgill from the Angels in
exchange for cash considerations and designated left-hander Nick Hagadone for
assignment, per a club announcement. MLB.com’s Alden Gonzalez reported (via
Twitter) that Cowgill was headed to Cleveland just before the trade was
announced.
Cowgill, 30 next May, gives the Indians a strong defensive option in the
outfield corners, though he comes with a light bat. The right-handed hitter
comes to Cleveland with a .236/.299/.334 batting line in 745 trips to the
plate as a Major Leaguer and a .188/.233/.290 line in just 74 PAs last season
in Anaheim. However, Cowgill is a standout left/right fielder in the eyes of
defensive metrics such as Ultimate Zone Rating and Defensive Runs Saved and
also has the ability to play center field. Cowgill has saved 28 runs in 1336
innings of corner defense, per DRS. UZR agrees, pegging him at +25 runs in
that time. He’s average to below-average in center, per those same metrics,
but he’s played just 370 innings there in his career.
Hagadone’s removal from the 40-man roster isn’t entirely unexpected, as the
lefty reliever underwent elbow surgery in late July that was projected to
sideline him for six to nine months. He was projected to receive just $700K
in arbitration, but the Indians probably didn’t want to commit the dollars
nor the roster spot to Hagadone without knowing when he could return to the
mound. He also has a fairly spotty track record as a Major Leaguer; while he
worked to a sound 3.55 ERA with a 55-to-18 K/BB ratio in 50 2/3 innings from
2014-15, his big league work prior to that point amounted to a 5.59 ERA in 67
2/3 innings.
