  • Yankees' Jake Cousins: Activated off IL for ALDS

    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' Jake Cousins: Expected to be ready for ALDS

    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.

  • Yankees' Jake Cousins: Hopes to be ready for ALDS

    Cousins (pectoral) will throw a bullpen session Tuesday and likely face live hitters Thursday, Meredith Marakovits of YES Network reports.

  • Yankees' Jake Cousins: Team hoping for postseason return

    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.

  • Yankees' Jake Cousins: Lands on IL

    The Yankees placed Cousins (pectoral) on the 15-day injured list Sunday, retroactive to Sept. 20.

    There was initial optimism that Cousins would avoid the IL after he left Thursday's game with pectoral tightness, but his regular season is officially over after he was diagnosed with a right pec strain. Cousins has pitched well this season with a 2.37 ERA and 1.05 WHIP in 38 innings, and the Yankees are likely holding out hope that he can be an option in the postseason.

  • Yankees' Jake Cousins: Should avoid IL stint

    Cousins (pectoral) is likely to be out for a few days after exiting his outing Thursday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

    Cousins was pulled with the issue in the sixth inning. After the game, he said he's been dealing with the injury since Sunday but had progressed to the point where he thought he could pitch in game action. Even with the setback, it appears that Cousins will avoid the injured list.

  • Yankees' Jake Cousins: Exits with trainer

    Cousins was removed from Thursday's game against the Mariners due to right pectoral tightness, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

    The Yankees' training staff saw something they didn't like after Cousins struck out Julio Rodriguez in the sixth inning, and they made the decision to pull their right-hander after he recorded just one out. The team will take a closer look at Cousins in the clubhouse to determine the severity of his injury, though he may be unavailable out of the bullpen for the next couple of days.

  • Yankees' Jake Cousins: Secures first career save

    Cousins walked one and struck out two in a scoreless and hitless inning to earn the save in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the White Sox.

    Cousins inherited runners on the corners from Tommy Kahnle. A one-out walk loaded the bases, but Cousins was able to escape the jam unscathed to earn his first career save. The Yankees' bullpen has been leaned on heavily in recent games, with Clay Holmes and Enyel De Los Santos among the high-leverage options that were likely unavailable Tuesday. As such, don't expect Cousins to see many more save chances, though he could be due for more late-inning work since he has a 2.25 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 34:9 K:BB over 24 innings this season.

  • Yankees' Jake Cousins: Summoned to big leagues

    The Yankees recalled Cousins from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday.

    After right-handed reliever Yoendrys Gomez worked two innings in Wednesday's 12-2 loss to the Mets, the Yankees will move him off the 26-man active roster for a fresh bullpen arm in Cousins. The 29-year-old previously made two relief appearances for the Yankees but has otherwise spent the entire 2024 campaign at Triple-A, where he's covered six innings while giving up two earned runs and striking out eight batters.

    The Yankees selected Cousins' contract from Scranton/Wilkes-Barre last week, and he allowed one earned run with a 4:3 K:BB over three innings during his brief time in the majors. The 29-year-old could rejoin the big club later in the season as bullpen depth is needed.

  • Yankees' Jake Cousins: Added to roster

    The Yankees selected Cousins' contract from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Monday.

    Cousins was acquired via trade from the White Sox on Sunday and will immediately be added to the major-league roster. The 29-year-old struggled in 2023 during his brief time in the majors and dealt with shoulder issues, but he posted a 2.70 ERA and 65:27 K:BB over 43.1 relief innings with the Brewers from 2021-22. Cousins will be used in low-leverage spots initially.

    Cousins was acquired from the White Sox on Sunday and it appears he'll head straight to the big leagues. The Yankees will need to make 26-man and 40-man roster moves in order to add him, and it's not clear at this point what those will be.

    Cousins was traded from the White Sox to the Yankees on Sunday in return for cash considerations.

The right-hander appeared in nine games with the Brewers in 2023, producing a 4.82 ERA with seven strikeouts and 10 walks allowed over 9.1 innings.
