The Houston Astros ace has undergone a surgical procedure to correct an issue with his right groin, and will be sidelined for at least six weeks.
He had a previous start in Spring Training delayed thanks to soreness in his groin.
Currently, Major League Baseball has cancelled Spring Training and has pushed back the start of the regular season thanks to the outbreak of COVID-19.
