  "account": "Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Justin Wrobleski is inching closer to returning to the MLB roster ahead of Wednesday's matchup against the Atlanta Braves. Prior to Wednesday's game, Wrobleski faced hitters for the first time since being placed on the injured list on August 16 due to inflammation in his left forearm. The pitcher struggled after the All-Star break, allowing 20 runs over his four most recent starts. Wrobleski's role on the Dodgers has become uncertain with other starting pitchers, such as Tyler Glasnow, Blake Snell, Shohei Ohtani, Tarik Skubal, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and Roki Sasaki, returning to the rotation. Wrobleski's role could shift to that of a reliever, potentially supporting Ohtani's starts or functioning as a high-leverage reliever.",
