2024 Fantasy Outlook
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. Read Past Outlooks
