Scouting Report
Updated May 19, 2026
Blaze Alexander, 26-year-old utility infielder for the Baltimore Orioles, was scratched from Friday's game (May 8) due to right calf tightness but became available off the bench by Saturday (May 9) after receiving treatment and rest. Through 89 plate appearances this season, Alexander is slashing .232/.284/.280 with 3 RBI, 8 runs scored, and 3 steals. He has been platooning at multiple infield positions (third base, second base) due to injuries to other Orioles players. His offensive production remains well below expectations for a utility player.
Strengths
