Cousins (pectoral) was activated off the 15-day injured list Saturday ahead of Game 1 of the American League Division Series versus Kansas City, per MLB's transaction log. Cousins finished the regular season on the injured list due to a pectoral strain but was able to toss a series of bullpen sessions ahead of the playoffs. The right-hander was able to prove his health and will serve as a relief option for New York against the Royals. Cousins has posted a 2.37 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 53:20 K:BB while logging eight holds and one save over 38 innings this season.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday that Cousins (pectoral) is on track to be ready for the ALDS, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports. Cousins will throw another bullpen session Wednesday, which should be the last hurdle he needs to clear before being included on the ALDS roster. The right-handed reliever hasn't pitched in a game in nearly two weeks because of a right pectoral strain.

Cousins (pectoral) will throw a bullpen session Tuesday and likely face live hitters Thursday, Meredith Marakovits of YES Network reports. He still hopes to be ready for the ALDS, and it sounds like he's hitting each necessary checkpoint. Cousins has been out for 10 days with a right pec strain.

Cousins (pectoral) played catch Friday, Max Goodman of The Newark Star-Ledger reports. It's the first time Cousins has done any throwing since he landed on the 15-day injured list with a right pectoral strain nearly a week ago. The hope is that he can be ready to pitch for the Yankees at some point during the playoffs.

Cousins, whom the Yankees placed on the 15-day injured list earlier Sunday with a right pectoral strain, could resume mound work within the next week, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports. The pec strain has brought Cousins' regular season to an end, but if he can return to elevated ground this week as hoped, he may still be an option for New York at some point in the postseason. Cousins ranks fifth on the team in holds with eight to go along with a 2.37 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 53:20 K:BB over 38 innings in his first season in pinstripes.
