Orioles Place Rodriguez on 15-Day Injured List

Baltimore Orioles pitcher Grayson Rodriguez was scratched from his scheduled start against the Toronto Blue Jays due to right lat/teres discomfort and placed on the 15-day injured list. Rodriguez, who has a 13-4 record with a 3.86 ERA this season, was replaced by Albert Suarez, who pitched well in his absence. The injury adds to the Orioles' woes as they have already lost several starters for the season. The team recently acquired Zach Eflin and Trevor Rogers to bolster their rotation, but losing Rodriguez could impact their playoff hopes. The Orioles are tied for first place in the AL East with the Yankees, making Rodriguez’s health crucial for their stretch run.
