Player Outlook
Garrett Cooper appeared in a career-high 123 games last season between Miami and San Diego. He spent time on the injured list with an ear infection but was able to stay mostly healthy in 2023 -- something he has struggled with throughout his career. For the season, he hit .324/.375/.529 against left-handed pitching compared to just .228/.281/.384 against righties. His splits are not as pronounced for his career, but at 33 years old, Cooper may be best suited for short-side platoon duty between first base and designated hitter. A surprise All-Star with the Marlins in 2022, Cooper saw his strikeout rate jump to 28.9 percent last season while his walk rate dipped for the second straight year. Now in camp with the Cubs as a non-roster invitee to spring training, Cooper will look to secure a role with a strong showing in the Cactus League. He has enough in his bat to be passable in fantasy, but only when he's seeing regular playing time.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Back in lineup Sunday

    Rotowire
    Cooper (shoulder) will bat third as the Red Sox's designated hitter Sunday against the Brewers, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports. The 33-year-old has recently been battling a shoulder issue, and he's in the starting lineup Sunday for the first time in a week. Cooper has struggled in 16 games since joining the Red Sox with a .205/.271/.295 slash line in 48 plate appearances.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Pinch hits Friday

    Rotowire
    Cooper (shoulder) entered Friday's game against the Brewers as a pinch hitter and went 0-for-1 in a 7-2 loss. Cooper was a late scratch from Wednesday's lineup due to right shoulder soreness, but after a day off Thursday, he was feeling well enough to pinch hit for Dominic Smith in the eighth inning and cover first base during the ninth. Cooper is slashing .214/.283/.310 across 46 plate appearances since joining the Red Sox, and his appearance in Friday's contest could signal a return to Boston's lineup within the next couple of games.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Scratched Wednesday

    Rotowire
    Cooper was scratched from Boston's lineup prior to Wednesday's game against the Rays due to right shoulder discomfort, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports. The severity of Cooper's injury isn't immediately apparent, but it's bothering him enough to keep him from playing Wednesday. Dominic Smith will enter the lineup to cover first base, meanwhile Cooper will have an extra day to rest Thursday before potentially returning Friday against the Brewers.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Not in Monday's lineup

    Rotowire
    Cooper is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports. Cooper has an .860 OPS over his past nine contests but will head to the bench Monday for the second time in Boston's last three games. Connor Wong will rest his legs as the designated hitter while Reese McGuire receives a start behind the plate.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Idle again

    Rotowire
    Cooper is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports. Cooper will be on the bench for a second consecutive contest, with the Red Sox shuffling the defensive lineup Tuesday. Reese McGuire will be behind the plate, Connor Wong will man the DH spot and Dominic Smith will handle first base. Cooper is slashing .234/.310/.359 across 71 plate appearances this season.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Exits starting nine

    Rotowire
    Cooper is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports. Cooper enjoyed a productive weekend in the Red Sox's series victory over the Nationals, starting in two of the three contests while producing three hits (two doubles, one single), one run and one RBI over six at-bats. He'll cede first base to Dominic Smith on Monday, but Cooper still looks to be locked into a near-everyday role for the Red Sox until Triston Casas (rib) returns from the injured list.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Two hits in win

    Rotowire
    Cooper started at first base and went 2-for-3 with a double in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Nationals. Cooper recorded his first multi-hit game since being acquired by the Red Sox on April 28. He was eventually pinch hit for by the left-handed hitting Dominic Smith in the eighth inning against a righty reliever with a runner in scoring position. With Triston Casas (oblique) on the 60-day injured list, first base has become a rotation involving Cooper, Smith and Romy Gonzalez.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Not starting Saturday

    Rotowire
    Cooper is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Washington, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports. Cooper will begin Saturday's contest in the dugout after going 1-for-3 with an RBI double in Friday's loss. Vaughn Grissom will shift to DH while David Hamilton gets the start at second base.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Returns to action

    Rotowire
    Cooper started at designated hitter and went 1-for-4 in Thursday's 3-1 loss to San Francisco. Cooper was back in action after missing one game due to a right wrist injury. He was plunked by a pitch during Tuesday's game -- his Red Sox debut -- and sat out Wednesday. Bobby Dalbec started at first base Thursday, but he's expected to be optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Friday, which will leave Cooper as the top option at first base. The lefty-hitting Dominic Smith is around to back up Cooper.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Sitting Wednesday

    Rotowire
    Cooper (wrist) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants. Cooper will get a day to recover after taking a pitch off his right wrist during Tuesday's contest. While he sits, Dominic Smith will make his Red Sox debut at first base and bat seventh.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Expected to be fine

    Rotowire
    Cooper is expected to be fine after exiting Tuesday's game versus the Giants following a hit-by-pitch on the right wrist, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports. It's not clear whether Cooper required any imaging, but either way it sounds like he escaped with just a contusion. The Red Sox are reportedly closing in on a major-league contract with Dominic Smith, who could share time at first base with Cooper while Triston Casas (ribs) is out.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Dealing with wrist contusion

    Rotowire
    Cooper (wrist) suffered a right wrist contusion in Tuesday's matchup with the Giants, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports. Cooper was hit by a pitch in the bottom of the fifth inning, forcing him to be removed from his Red Sox debut early. The 33-year-old is likely set to undergo some additional imaging on his wrist, which will provide a better understanding of his status moving forward. In the meantime, Bobby Dalbec replaced Cooper at first base and would see an extended role in his absence.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Exits early versus Giants

    Rotowire
    Cooper was hit in the right arm with a pitch and removed from Tuesday's contest against the Giants in the fifth inning, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports. Cooper was hit in the forearm/wrist with a 94.8 mph sinker from Sean Hjelle in the bottom of the fifth inning, leaving the contest after going 0-for-2 with two strikeouts and the HBP. Bobby Dalbec replaced him at first base and is batting seventh.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Batting seventh in Boston debut

    Rotowire
    Cooper is starting at first base and batting seventh Tuesday against the Giants, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports. The 33-year-old was acquired from the Cubs over the weekend and will make his debut for the Red Sox on Tuesday. Cooper had a .270/.341/.432 slash line in 41 plate appearances for Chicago and should see plenty of playing time at first base while Triston Casas (ribs) is sidelined.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Should be available Tuesday

    Rotowire
    The Red Sox expect Cooper to be activated for Tuesday's series opener against the Giants, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports. The Red Sox acquired Cooper from the Cubs for cash considerations Saturday. Boston manager Alex Cora didn't immediately reveal how Cooper will be deployed, but it sounds like the newly acquired first baseman will get the bulk of starts. "Obviously, he's a guy that can put together a good at-bat," Cora said. "He can hit lefties and righties. He's a good defender. We do believe he's going to help us out." Cooper could move immediately to the top of the first-base depth chart.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Shipped to Boston

    Rotowire
    The Cubs traded Cooper to the Red Sox on Saturday in exchange for cash, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports. Cooper was designated for assignment Tuesday despite sporting a .270/.341/.432 slash line through 41 plate appearances. He has no minor-league options remaining, so he will occupy a spot on Boston's big-league roster and should see regular time at first base while Triston Casas (ribs) is out.

  • Cubs' Garrett Cooper: Jettisoned from 40-man roster

    Rotowire
    The Cubs designated Cooper for assignment Tuesday. Cooper is slashing a solid .270/.341/.432 this season, which mirrors his career-long batting line. The Cubs have decided he's no longer a fit for the roster, though, and will replace him with Matt Mervis, who will be called up from Triple-A Iowa. Cooper should have no trouble landing a gig elsewhere in short order.

  • Cubs' Garrett Cooper: Has big night Tuesday

    Rotowire
    Cooper went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double, a triple, a three-run home run and an additional run in Tuesday's 12-2 win over the Rockies. Cooper finished a single shy of a cycle but it was a huge offensive performance nonetheless. The extra-base hits were his first three of the season, and the veteran now has an absurd 1.806 OPS, albeit in a very small sample size. Cooper is slotted behind Michael Busch right now at first base, though the former could push for more playing time if he stays hot.

  • Cubs' Garrett Cooper: Makes Opening Day roster

    Rotowire
    The Cubs informed Cooper on Friday that he made the team's Opening Day roster, Craig Mish of the Miami Herald reports. Cooper was brought into the Cubs' camp as a non-roster invitee, and he will claim a spot on the roster after going 6-for-26 with two home runs and five RBI across 10 games. He'll likely serve as the primary backup to Michael Busch at first base but could find himself in the lineup regularly against left-handed starters.

  • Cubs' Garrett Cooper: Should see action Monday

    Rotowire
    Cooper is expected to see his first game action of the spring Monday, Sahadev Sharma of The Athletic reports. Cooper joined the Cubs on a minor-league deal at the end of February to give the team depth at first base. Fellow newcomer Michael Busch is expected to be the starter there, and Cody Bellinger can also play first when he's not in center field. However, Cooper could make the case for more regular playing time if he looks good in Cactus League action.
