Scouting Report

It has been a tale of two full seasons for Alexander since joining the Tigers as a Draft-eligible sophomore taken out of TCU in the second round of the 2015 Draft. In his first full season, he did what every organization hopes to get from an advanced college lefty, pitching his way to Double-A. A return to the Eastern League in 2017, however, didn't go nearly as well, leaving questions about whether the southpaw's stuff is good enough for the highest levels.

When Alexander is going right, he commands his largely average stuff well down in the zone. He is capable of adding and subtracting from his fastball, as well as sinking it, to get ground-ball outs, throwing it anywhere from 88 mph up to 92-93 mph. His changeup is his best secondary pitch, a tick above average and he can mix in an effective slider and curve. While Alexander continued to walk very few hitters in 2017, his command within the strike zone wasn't good. He doesn't have the power repertoire to get away with pitching up and he paid the price.

Alexander is a smart pitcher, one who has shown the ability to make adjustments in the past. The Tigers hope he is able to learn from his rough 2017, rediscover his command, and continue his march toward being a starter in the back end of a big league rotation.

Pitch Movement

How this works: Every pitch is affected by the forces of gravity, which means that every pitch drops on its way from the mound to the plate. These numbers are reported with gravity, which makes them larger and different than other pitch movement numbers you may have seen. Since gravity requires time, and slower pitches aren’t ‘better’ just because they have more time to move, the movement of a pitch is compared to ‘average’ movement by comparing it to other MLB pitch types within +/- 2 MPH and from within +/- 0.5 feet of extension and release.
