  • Orioles' Garrett Cooper: Signs minors deal with Orioles

    The Orioles signed Cooper to a minor-league contract Monday, Craig Mish of the Miami Herald reports.

    Cooper was cut loose by the Red Sox earlier this month after slashing just .206/.267/.299 between his time there and with the Cubs. The 33-year-old sports a solid .265/.333/.427 line for his career, but finding playing time on the big-league roster with the Orioles could be a tall task.

  • Garrett Cooper: Becomes free agent

    The Red Sox released Cooper on Friday, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

    Cooper cleared waivers after being designated for assignment and is now free to sign on with a new organization. The 33-year-old has slashed just .206/.267/.299 between the Cubs and Red Sox this season, but with a career .265/.333/.427line he should draw some interest in free agency.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Departs 40-man roster

    The Red Sox designated Cooper for assignment Tuesday, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

    Cooper got a shot at fairly regular reps with the Red Sox between first base and designated hitter, but it didn't work out, as he slashed only .171/.227/.229 with a 22:3 K:BB over 75 plate appearances. He'll get a shot somewhere else if he winds up leaving the Red Sox organization, but Cooper might have to spend some time in the minor leagues first.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Heads to bench in O'Neill's return

    Cooper is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

    Cooper served as Boston's designated hitter in both of the past two games and went 0-for-8 with four strikeouts. He'll cede DH duties to Rob Refsnyder on Wednesday, and with Tyler O'Neill (knee) returning from the 10-day injured list one day after Wilyer Abreu (ankle) was deactivated, Boston will likely have room in the lineup against right-handed pitching for only one of Refsnyder and Cooper moving forward. Refsnyder has performed far better than Cooper so far this season, so it wouldn't be surprising if Boston opted to make the former a greater priority in the lineup.

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

    Cooper is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game in Baltimore, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

    Tyler O'Neill (knee) is out for a fourth straight game, but Rob Refsynder has been the preferred option at designated hitter of late, even against right-handed pitchers. Cooper has now started just two of the last nine games for the Red Sox, though he missed some time during that stretch due to right shoulder discomfort.

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

    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

    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

    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

  • Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Idle again

    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

    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

    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.
