EDGE Analysis

Cousins has been sidelined with a strained right biceps since Saturday and will be out for the remainder of the regular season. However, Brewers president of baseball operations David Stearns said Friday that the right-hander should be back in action in time for the postseason. The 27-year-old made 30 appearances this year and recorded a 2.70 ERA and 1.17 WHIP in 30 innings.
