Yankees’ Jake Cousins Faces Unexpected Pec Injury—Could This Threaten His Season Before It Starts?
“We don’t see this as anything too dire, but enough to bench him temporarily,” Boone noted. Thankfully, tests have ruled out any shoulder damage, giving some relief to the team and fans alike. Cousins, who boasted a solid 2.37 ERA last season over 37 relief appearances, striking out 53 batters in 38 innings, is clearly a key bullpen piece the Yankees are eager to get back. Meanwhile, Boone remains tight-lipped on the timeline for Stanton’s rehab—no set date has been announced for when the five-time All-Star might begin a minor league stint after his persistent elbow tendon issues kept him out since spring training. With these injury puzzles unfolding, the Yankees are treading carefully, hoping patience pays off for both players and the team’s bigger picture.
