Pirates GM Ben Cherington said Sunday that Gonzales (groin) is being placed on the 10-day injured list, and the absence will be measured in weeks, not days, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.
The 25-year-old is expected to return before the end of the season, but when exactly that might be remains to be seen. Gonzales suffered the groin injury during Saturday's matchup with the Diamondbacks and will now be sidelined for the foreseeable future. He got off to a hot start with a .280/.316/.439 slash line in his first 44 games of the season but posted a .533 OPS in July.
