  "account": "After a seven-week absence, Yankees pitcher Carlos Rodon will return to the rotation on Tuesday night against the Orioles at Camden Yards. Max Fried, another veteran lefty, has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to a left elbow bone bruise, which could jeopardize his 2026 season. Rodon, who has only made nine starts this year, is set to pitch around a 65-pitch limit during his rehab stint. The 6'3\", 215-pound lefty will face Baltimore right-hander Shane Baz, who has a 4-12 record and 4.00 ERA this season. In their previous encounter on May 4, the Yankees dominated the Orioles 12-1, with Baz contributing 5.2 innings and six hits. Here is the Yankees' starting lineup for Tuesday night's game: Trent Grisham in center field, Ben Rice as designated hitter, Heliot Ramos left field, Luis Garcia Jr. first base, Spencer Jones third base, Jazz Chisholm Jr. right field, George Lombard Jr. second base, Ryan McMahon shortstop, and Austin Wells catching.",
