The New York Yankees have made a probably sensible transfer by buying an underrated reliever from the Chicago White Sox, a choice that would yield dividends sooner or later.
The crew finalized a deal to amass right-handed pitcher Jake Cousins in trade for money concerns.
Both groups concurrently introduced the deal on the night of Sunday, April 1, by their respective social media accounts.
Cousins has primarily been related to the Milwaukee Brewers all through his profession, marking his MLB debut with the crew in 2021.
Towards the tip of the 2023 season, he was claimed off waivers by the Houston Astros earlier than subsequently signing a minor league contract with the Yankees through the previous offseason.

The 29-year-old’s profession stats paint an image of immense potential, boasting a stellar 3.08 ERA, a 31.4% strikeout charge (Ok%), a stable 50.4% groundball charge (GB%), and a 38.7% whiff charge (Whiff%).
However, a UCL damage in June 2022 derailed his profession. Despite this setback, he opted to not bear Tommy John surgical procedure and as a substitute acquired a platelet-rich plasma injection.

Cousins is a cousin of four-time Pro Bowl choice and star quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons, Kirk Cousins.
The signal-caller even congratulated the reliever when he was drafted by the Washington Nationals in 2017.
