The good news is it’s a groin issue for Salazar and has nothing to do with his arm or his shoulder, which he had surgery on in 2018. The bad news is, groin or not, he was barely hitting 88 MPH with his fastball in a loss against the Houston Astros. The Tribe can only hope that velocity was down to his groin problem and isn’t a sign of things to come when he comes back again.
