  "account": "Arlington, Texas (AP) — Following a successful bullpen session, Texas Rangers pitcher Jacob deGrom could potentially start the series finale against Washington just a week after being removed early from a game due to right triceps fatigue, according to manager Skip Schumaker. The 38-year-old had previously been grappling with a left hip and glute injury since the All-Star break. In the Rangers' 7-0 loss to the Los Angeles Angels last Thursday, deGrom lasted only two innings, surrendering two runs and five hits in a 32-pitch outing. Since then, he has been granted the opportunity to start the following day, Thursday. DeGrom's current tally of 30 starts this season would see him match the milestone set last year, the first time he has reached that number since securing both the 2018 and 2019 Cy Young Awards with the New York Mets.",
