Sousa injured his left oblique on a fielding play during his last Grapefruit League appearance and will open the season on the 15-day injured list. He appeared in 44 games out of the Houston bullpen last season, posting a 2.84 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 59:15 K:BB across 50.2 innings. (Matt Kawahara)

Fantasy Impact:

His absence adds to the Astros' early-season bullpen concerns, as Sousa will join closer Josh Hader (biceps) on the injured list to begin the year.
