Alexander picked up a one-out save Monday against the Tigers, his third of the season.

EDGE Analysis

Alexander cleaned things up for Brandon Maurer, who handed him the ball with the tying run at second base in a one-run game. The 32-year-old reliever needed just four pitches to end the contest, inducing a game-ending groundout from the only batter he faced (Mikie Mahtook). This marked Alexander's second save in the past four games, and it appears he could be in line for more opportunities with Kelvin Herrera (forearm) and Joakim Soria (oblique) both on the shelf with injuries. He has posted a 2.18 ERA and 49:22 K:BB in 57.2 innings out of the bullpen this season.
