Morton will have his next start pushed back a few days in order to receive some extra rest, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
The Astros are leaving Saturday's starter as "TBA" for the time being, while Gerrit Cole will take the hill Sunday versus the Angels. It's unclear whether Morton will receive just one extra day off and pitch Monday, but expect him to toe the rubber at some point during the club's three-game set against Minnesota next week. On the year, Morton has logged a 3.14 ERA and 1.18 WHIP with an 11.0 K/9 across 152 innings.
