Guardians bring 3-game losing streak into matchup with the Tigers
The Cleveland Guardians look to stop their three-game losing streak when they take on the Detroit TigersMAY 20, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Not yet throwing off mound Alexander (elbow) has been limited to throwing on flat ground since landing on the 15-day injured list May 2, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
Impact Alexander is one of five Tigers starting pitchers currently on the IL, and Eduardo Rodriguez (side) will make it six when the team deactivates him at some point before Friday's game in Cleveland. Though Alexander didn't enter the season as a major rotation piece for Detroit, his absence due to the left elbow sprain looms large with so many other key arms also on the mend. Since he has yet to graduate to throwing off a mound since being shelved more than two weeks ago, Alexander appears unlikely to return until June at the soonest.

MRI comes back clean Alexander (elbow) recently underwent an MRI that came back clean, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.
Impact Alexander landed on the 15-day injured list Monday due to a left elbow sprain, but it's encouraging that he doesn't appear to be dealing with any structural damage. The southpaw had been pitching through pain for about a month, and it impacted his mechanics and may have contributed to his 8.76 ERA and 1.78 WHIP in 12.1 innings over his first four starts of the year. Although the results of his MRI brought good news, a timetable for Alexander's return isn't yet known.

Goes on IL with elbow sprain The Tigers placed Alexander on the 15-day injured list Monday with a left elbow sprain, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Impact The move was made retroactive to Saturday, the day Alexander last pitched. He surrendered four runs over 2.1 innings in a loss to the Dodgers that day, giving up two home runs while walking two and striking out one. The 27-year-old has posted a 8.76 ERA and 1.78 WHIP over 12.1 innings this season. The Tigers have yet to announce a replacement for Alexander in the rotation, though they won't have much flexibility with Casey Mize (elbow) and Matt Manning (shoulder) already on the IL.

Handed third straight loss Alexander (0-3) took the loss during Friday's 5-1 defeat at the hands of the Dodgers, allowing four runs on three hits and two walks with one strikeout in 2.1 innings.
Impact Alexander was victimized by home runs during each of his first two innings that got Detroit into a deficit it would not recover from. After a decent debut against Boston on April 12, the 27-year-old has surrendered nine runs through seven innings across three starts. He's currently slated to pitch during next weekend's series in Houston, though Alexander probably won't stick in the rotation once Casey Mize (elbow) and Matt Manning (shoulder) if he continues to bleed runs.
