Garrett Cooper’s return to full health for the Miami Marlins lasted all of two plate appearances Tuesday against the Cleveland Indians.
Cooper began 2018 as the Marlins’ starting right fielder before a right wrist injury limited the slugger to just 14 games. He was their starting right fielder again on Opening Day this season until a calf injury just three games in sent him to the injured list again.
