Rest-of-Season Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Alexander made the Diamondbacks' Opening Day roster last season and played his way into regular looks in April, finishing the month with a .941 OPS and three home runs. He then slashed only .210/.272/.229 with a 29.6 percent strikeout rate the rest of the way and spent most of the second half back in the minors. Alexander put up an .819 OPS versus lefties but just a .538 OPS against right-handers, and much of his contact came on the ground with a 51.7 percent ground ball rate. The Diamondbacks are set at the three infield positions Alexander plays, and none of them need a short-side platoon partner, so it might take an injury or two for the 25-year-old to see regular playing time with the big club.

Exits after being struck by pitch
Alexander was removed from Sunday's game against the Twins after being hit in the left elbow by a pitch in the top of the fourth inning, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports. He finished 0-for-1 with a run scored.
Analysis
Alexander appeared to be in significant pain after being hit, but he was able to take his base before checking out of the game in the bottom half of the inning. The Diamondbacks will likely send Alexander in for X-rays, but even if he avoids a fracture, he could be dealing with enough swelling or soreness to keep him out of the lineup for a few days. Alexander had settled into an everyday role for the Diamondbacks in the aftermath of the July 31 trade deadline, batting .250 with seven home runs, one stolen base, 21 runs and 22 RBI in 41 games since then.

How does Blaze Alexander compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
It's been a slow walk through the minors for Alexander, a 2018 11th-round draft pick that parlayed a strong 2022 season at Double-A Amarillo into a spot on the 40-man roster and shot at Triple-A Reno in 2023. He started strong but fractured a thumb in April that sidelined him for two months. The 24-year-old infielder finished with an .865 OPS and .281 average, fueled by a .398 BABIP. The power added in 2022 fell off, which may be attributed to the injury. The pop complemented his flashy fielding and arm (his best tool). As a shortstop by trade, Alexander sits behind Jordan Lawlar and Geraldo Perdomo on the major-league roster. As such, the organization introduced him to second and third base, but the same obstacles exist at those positions. Alexander may best be suited as a utility backup infielder.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Role for 2025 unclear
Alexander doesn't have a clear place on Arizona's big-league roster to begin 2025, according to Jack Sommers of SI.com.
Analysis
The 25-year-old appeared in 61 games as a rookie in 2024 and had a .247/.321/.343 slash line with three homers and three stolen bases. Alexander spent the final five-plus weeks of the regular season in the minors, and there isn't a clear path to playing time based on the current roster construction. The likely re-emergence of top prospect Jordan Lawlar, who missed most of the season due to injuries, provides an additional hurdle for Alexander's path to consistent playing time.
