June 21, 2025 3:17 PM : Cousins announced on his personal Instagram account that he underwent Tommy John surgery Wednesday.
Analysis: Cousins had been dealing with injuries to his throwing arm since spring and wasn't able to pitch in any games this season. If all goes well in his recovery from surgery, he could be ready to return to game action sometime during the summer of 2026.
