Blaze Alexander Finishes Impressive Spring With Homer
8 months agoArizona Diamondbacks shortstop prospect Blaze Alexander finished his impressive Cactus League by going 1-for-2 with a walk and two-run homer versus the Cleveland Guardians. Alexander, 24, made waves this spring by hitting .400 (22-for-55) with two homers, eight RBI and five stolen bases. Alexander has put the pressure on the Diamondbacks to let him break camp as a bench option. Despite shortstop Jordan Lawlar having the better long-term future, it will be hard for the Diamondbacks to send Alexander packing after putting up some of the best spring numbers in all of baseball. If he does break camp, Alexander would operate in a utility role to start the season and could be avoided to minimal opportunity.
