Garrett Cooper Making Powerful Case To Make Team
6 years agoMiami Marlins outfielder Garrett Cooper is doing everything he can to crack the Marlins 25-man roster. The 28-year-old went 2-for-3 on Friday, bringing his spring training OPS to .991 with a week to go. The Marlins already have Curtis Granderson, Lewis Brinson locked up to start the season, with only Pete O'Brien as Cooper's main competition for the last spot in the outfield. Cooper was the Marlins' regular guy in right field last season before getting hit on the wrist by a pitch in the second game. He ended up playing in only 14 games all year, but is bouncing back nicely. He should only be rostered in the deepest of leagues, but is worth monitoring in case some of the Marlins magic this spring carries over into the regular season.
