  "account": "The New York Yankees have placed outfielder Aaron Judge on the injured list with a calf strain, just seven games into his return from a rib injury. Judge exited Wednesday's game early with a lower leg injury and initially believed it was not serious. However, it has since been determined to be a significant issue. The Yankees will place him on the 10-day injured list on Saturday, making him ineligible to return until the final game of the regular season. Judge's return to the lineup after a three-month absence without a rehab assignment appears to have been a mistake. In his brief stint back, he batted .174. Now, the bigger concern is whether Judge will be available for the postseason run.",
