The 29-year old Honduran midfielder has sustained a sever muscle tear in his right leg which will see him out of action for between 6 to 8 weeks.
The former Wigan Athletic and Colorado Rapids man suffered the problem in Saturday's 2-1 loss at San Jose Earthquakes and is now targeting a July return.
