Surrenders one earned run Alexander allowed one earned run on three hits and one walk while striking out two across 2.2 innings Thursday against the Mariners. He did not factor into the decision.
Impact Alexander led off a bullpen game for the Tigers and threw 56 pitches. The lone run he allowed came on a solo shot in the first inning by Mitch Haniger. Though he exited the game with a 3-1 lead, Alexander did not pitch deep enough into the game to qualify for the win.

Starting in bullpen game Alexander is scheduled to start Thursday's game against the Mariners in what's expected to be a bullpen day for the Tigers, < href="https://www.mlive.com/tigers/2021/06/tigers-plac...
Impact Alexander previously led off a bullpen game when Detroit last needed a fifth starter July 1 in Milwaukee. In that outing, the lefty gave up a run and recorded all three of his outs via strikeout before turning the game over to the bullpen, but Detroit may ask Alexander to work a little deeper into Tuesday's contest. Derek Holland (shoulder) was moved to injured list Thursday and Jose Cisnero, Kyle Funkhouser and Daniel Norris are unlikely to be available due to their recent usage, but Alexander is fairly well rested after having not pitched since Friday.

Lasts one inning in start Alexander started Monday's game against the Brewers and pitched one scoreless inning. He allowed one hit and struck out two.
Impact Detroit gave Alexander his first start of the season in place of Jose Urena (forearm), and he wasn't allowed to work very deep in the game after not going more than three innings in any of his relief appearances so far. Alexander made 10 starts for the Tigers across the last two years, so he does have some experience in the rotation. He could get stretched out a bit more if he sticks as a starter while Urena is out, though the latter could be back as soon as Sunday.

Pitching well this spring Alexander has a 3.00 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and six strikeouts through nine Grapefruit League innings.
Impact Alexander has looked good this spring, and the lefty will definitely have a spot on the 26-man roster coming out of camp. The bigger question is what exactly his role will look like. Alexander has the flexibility to work as a starter and a reliever, and he did a little of both for the Tigers last season when he registered a 3.96 ERA across 36.1 innings. For now, he looks like more of a long reliever, but he could find himself in the rotation if other pitchers struggle or deal with injuries.
