Cooper was drafted by the New York Yankees in the 17th round (442nd overall) of the 1978 Major League Baseball Draft.
After the 1980 season, he was selected by the Minnesota Twins from the Yankees in the Rule 5 draft.

On March 13, 1984, Cooper was traded to the Yankees for outfielder Derwin McNealy.

In 44 MLB games (three starts) spread over four seasons, Cooper compiled a 1–6 record with a 5.27 ERA.

With the departure of Ozzie Guillén on September 26, 2011, and Joey Cora on September 27, 2011, Cooper became the 38th manager of the White Sox, filling the role for the final two games of the 2011 season before yielding the position to Robin Ventura.

He told the Chicago Sun-Times in 2018, "I love being part of young people’s lives helping them achieve the dreams they’re dreaming about. That’s what I’m into.’’
On October 12, 2020, Cooper and the White Sox parted ways after 32 seasons with the organization at various levels.
