Yankees Trade for RHP Jake Cousins; White Sox Receive Cash Considerations in Deal

The New York Yankees have acquired right-handed relief pitcher Jake Cousins from the Chicago White Sox, the team announced Sunday.

The White Sox will receive cash considerations in the deal.

Cousins, 29, had not appeared for Chicago in the 2024 season before he was traded. In nine appearances for the Milwaukee Brewers last year, he had seven strikeouts, 10 walks and a 4.82 ERA in 9.1 innings pitched.

He was claimed off of waivers by the Houston Astros in July, spending most of his time with the Triple-A Sugar Land Space Cowboys.
