The Boston Red Sox added first baseman/outfielder Garrett Cooper to the major league roster and designated utility player Pablo Reyes for assignment on Monday.

The Red Sox acquired Cooper from the Chicago Cubs on Saturday for cash considerations.

Cooper, 33, was designated for assignment by the Cubs last week after hitting .270 with a home run and six RBIs in 12 games. His playing time was limited with the emergence of Michael Busch.

Boston has playing time available at first base with Triston Casas (ribs) currently on the injured list.
