Eovaldi will pitch the final game of the Yankees' opening series against the Astros, Mark Feinsand of the New York Daily News reports.
The flame-throwing righty is locked in as the Yankees' No. 3 starter to begin the year, as he'll take the mound for the opening series finale against Houston. Eovaldi was slowed by a groin injury to start spring training, but he has since bounced back by working a 3.86 ERA across 9.1 innings of work. In two starts against Houston last year, Eovaldi struck out 13 batters across 14.0 combined innings and allowed just three earned runs in that span.
