Astros' Jason Alexander: Sent to Sugar Land
The Astros optioned Alexander to Triple-A Sugar Land on Saturday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Alexander worked three scoreless innings Friday against the Dodgers to pick up the first save of his MLB career, but he'll be sent back to Triple-A to free a spot in the bullpen for the newly signed Hector Neris. Alexander's 1.72 ERA and 1.34 WHIP in the minors this season, haven't quite translated into big-league success, as he's given up 14 earned runs over 15 innings between the Astros and Athletics.

Astros' Jason Alexander: Secures three-inning save
Alexander allowed two hits and two walks while striking out two over three scoreless innings to earn the save in Friday's 18-1 win over the Dodgers.
The Astros' lead was never in doubt, so Alexander had plenty of runs to work with in the blowout win. He spared the rest of the team's bullpen, turning in a 57-pitch outing to earn the first save of his major-league career. He's still at an 8.40 ERA, 1.80 WHIP and 11:10 K:BB across 15 innings between the Astros and the Athletics this year, though he's been much better in limited action with Houston as a swingman. It's unclear if he'll stay in the majors after his call-up Friday -- either way, he won't be available to pitch at any level for at least a few days.

Astros' Jason Alexander: Back in Houston
The Astros recalled Alexander from Triple-A Sugar Land on Friday. Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Alexander owns a 10.50 ERA through 12 innings in the majors this season, though he's given up just two runs in six frames since joining the Astros organization. He'll come up from the minors to provide length out of the bullpen and replace Jordan Weems, who was DFA'd in a corresponding move.

Astros' Jason Alexander: Returns to Triple-A
The Astros optioned Alexander to Triple-A Sugar Land on Wednesday, Julia Morales of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports.
The right-hander made a spot start for Houston on Tuesday and delivered a quality start against the A's with three runs (two earned) allowed over six innings. Alexander picked up his first win since 2022 with the performance, and he should be in the mix for a promotion the next time the Astros need some rotation depth or a long reliever.

Astros' Jason Alexander: Haunts former team Tuesday
Alexander (1-0) allowed three runs (two earned) on three hits and three walks while striking out four over six-plus innings to earn the win Tuesday over the Athletics.
Alexander made four appearances with the Athletics earlier in the season and allowed 13 runs (12 earned) over six innings across four relief outings. He started Tuesday and did a good job of quieting his former team until the seventh inning. Alexander threw just 56 of 95 pitches for strikes and wasn't dominant, but it was a serviceable start for the 32-year-old. It's unclear if he'll stick in the Astros' rotation -- he was called up as a spot starter after Lance McCullers (foot) landed on the injured list Monday, prompting a late shuffle of the team's pitching plans for this week. With off days for the last two Mondays of June, the Astros will likely be able to get by with a five-man rotation moving forward.

Astros' Jason Alexander: Getting start Tuesday
Alexander is slated to start Tuesday's game against the Athletics in Sacramento, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Alexander was recalled from Triple-A Sugar Land prior to Monday's series opener, but after he wasn't needed in relief in Houston's 3-1 loss, he'll end up filling the opening in the Astros' six-man rotation that was created by Lance McCullers' (foot) move to the injured list. The 32-year-old right-hander will be making his first start in the big leagues since 2022, though he's been working out of the rotation or as a primary pitcher out of the bullpen over his nine appearances at the Triple-A level this season. After the Astros claimed him off waivers from the Athletics on May 18 and optioned him to the minors, Alexander delivered a 1.74 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 15:8 K:BB in 20.2 innings with Sugar Land prior to getting recalled.

Astros' Jason Alexander: Recalled, could start Tuesday
The Astros recalled Alexander from Triple-A Sugar Land on Monday, Julia Morales of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports.
Alexander will be joining the Astros as a replacement on the 26-man active roster for right-hander Lance McCullers (foot), whom Houston placed on the 15-day injured list. Ryan Gusto will be pushed up a day in the Astros' pitching schedule to start Monday's series opener in Sacramento, but Alexander could be called upon to start Tuesday's game against the Athletics while Houston looks to keep a six-man rotation intact during a stretch of 13 games in 13 days, per Chandler Rome of The Athletic. The 32-year-old Alexander hasn't made a start in the majors since 2022, but he made four appearances in the majors with the Athletics earlier this season and gave up 13 runs (12 earned) in six innings. Since being claimed off waivers by the Astros on May 18, Alexander has worked out of the Sugar Land rotation and has posted a 1.74 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 15:8 K:BB in 20.2 innings over four starts.

Astros' Jason Alexander: Claimed by Houston
The Astros claimed Alexander off waivers Sunday and optioned him to Triple-A Sugar Land, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
The right-hander was designated for assignment by the Athletics on Friday but will retain a spot on the 40-man roster with a new organization. Alexander gave up 12 earned runs over six frames in the majors but has a 1.69 ERA in five starts at the Triple-A level this season.

Athletics' Jason Alexander: Sent back to Triple-A
The Athletics designated Alexander for assignment to Triple-A Las Vegas on Friday.
Alexander was lit up for three homers and gave up nine earned runs in 2.1 innings during Thursday's 19-2 blowout defeat against the Dodgers. His dreadful performance will result in him returning to the minors alongside Osvaldo Bido, with Matt Krook and Anthony Maldonado coming up from Las Vegas to replace them.

Athletics' Jason Alexander: Recalled by Athletics
The Athletics recalled Alexander from Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday.
Alexander will return to the big club after T.J. McFarland (adductor) was placed on the 15-day injured list. Alexander has a 1.69 ERA and 1.23 WHIP across 21.1 innings in Triple-A as a starter this season, but he'll likely operate out of the Athletics' bullpen in McFarland's absence. Alexander made three major-league appearances before being optioned to Triple-A on April 18, allowing four runs (three earned) over 3.2 innings.

Athletics' Jason Alexander: Receives call-up
The Athletics selected Alexander's contract from Triple-A Las Vegas on Monday.
Alexander will provide length out of the bullpen after the Athletics leaned heavily on their relievers to cover innings during their weekend series at Coors Field. The 32-year-old previously made 18 appearances at the major-league level in 2022 with the Brewers, collecting a 5.40 ERA and 46:28 K:BB over 71.2 frames.

Athletics' Jason Alexander: Sent out of big-league camp
The Athletics reassigned Alexander to minor-league camp Monday.
Alexander covered 71.2 innings in the big leagues with the Brewers in 2022, but he's pitched exclusively in the minors over the past two seasons and will likely function as organizational pitching depth for the Athletics in 2025. The 32-year-old right-hander is likely to be included in the Triple-A Las Vegas rotation after he turned in a 4.42 ERA and 1.32 WHIP across 138.1 innings at the Triple-A level with the Red Sox's affiliate in 2024.

Athletics' Jason Alexander: Minor-league deal with Athletics
The Athletics signed Alexander to a minor-league contract Nov. 15.
Alexander's lone big-league experience came in 2022 with the Brewers, when he posted a 5.40 ERA over 18 appearances (11 starts). He spent the 2024 season at Triple-A Worcester in the Red Sox organization, holding a 4.42 ERA and 129:39 K:BB across 138.1 frames.

Alexander made 18 appearances (11 starts) for the Brewers in 2022 and had a 5.40 ERA and 46:28 K:BB over 71.2 innings. He spent last season at the Triple-A level and had a 5.86 ERA in 16 outings, and he'll serve as organizational pitching depth for the Red Sox.

Brewers' Jason Alexander: Taken off 40-man roster
Alexander cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Nashville on Monday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Alexander is now no longer part of the Brewers' 40-man roster. The swingman has missed a large chunk of this season with a shoulder issue, and while he is healthy now, he has just a 5.23 ERA and 18:9 K:BB over 31 innings this year in the minors.

Brewers' Jason Alexander: Activated, optioned to Triple-A
The Brewers reinstated Alexander (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list Saturday and optioned him to Triple-A Nashville, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
A right shoulder strain forced Alexander to the injured list before the start of the season. His last three rehab starts came in Nashville, and he will remain in Triple-A after surrendering just three runs on 15 hits and four walks while striking out six batters through 15 innings. If he continues at his current pace in Nashville, Alexander could potentially work his way back onto the Brewers as a multi-inning reliever.

Brewers' Jason Alexander: Beginning rehab assignment
Alexander (shoulder) is beginning a rehab assignment Friday in the Arizona Complex League, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Alexander has been on the shelf since February because of a right rotator cuff strain, but he's finally ready to take the mound again in live games. The 30-year-old could be an option for the Brewers' pitching staff toward the end of June.
