Jason Alexander Fantasy Stats

Houston Astros pitcher Jason Alexander had his swing-and-miss stuff working during Thursday's outing against the Colorado Rockies. Alexander came into this game allowing two earned runs or less in five straight outings. The Rockies were able to do some damage to Alexander, but he was still able to have success. Alexander tossed 5.2 innings, allowing three runs on seven hits while striking out a season-high eight batters. The right-hander has pitched well with a 2.96 ERA over 48.2 innings since joining Houston. He has been a decent streaming option, but his value will take a hit with his next outing being against the New York Yankees.

The Houston Astros will start right-hander Jason Alexander for their series opener in Miami on Monday, according to Chandler Rome of The Athletic. The Astros haven't named starters for Tuesday or Wednesday, but one of those spots could go to Spencer Arrighetti (thumb). The righty is nearing a return after missing four months with a thumb injury. Alexander, who has divided his season between the Athletics and Astros, has made eight appearances (three starts) and stumbled to a 7.36 ERA with a 1.83 WHIP, 20 strikeouts, and 14 walks in 25 2/3 innings.

The Houston Astros plan to call up right-hander Jason Alexander in order to start on Thursday against the division-rival Athletics, according to Chandler Rome of The Athletic. Nick Hernandez has been optioned to Triple-A Sugar Land in a corresponding move. The 32-year-old will be facing the team he started out with this year in the A's, and this will be just his second "start" of the year and 13th of his career after debuting with Milwaukee in 2022. He has appeared in only two games (one start) for the Astros, allowing three runs (two earned) while walking five and striking out six. Alexander had an 18.00 ERA in just six relief innings for the A's earlier in 2025. He has been excellent at Sugar Land in the minors, but fantasy managers should consider him a desperation streamer in his second start of the year, even against the A's.

Houston Astros right-hander Jason Alexander will make the start on Tuesday in Sacramento against the Athletics, according to the Houston Chronicle's Matt Kawahara. This will be Alexander's first start of the year and his first start in the big leagues since 2022 with the Milwaukee Brewers in his first year in the majors. The 32-year-old veteran will be making his Astros debut on Tuesday after appearing in just four games out of the bullpen for the A's early this year, when he allowed 13 runs (12 earned) on 12 hits (three homers) while walking five and striking out five. Houston currently has an opening in their rotation due to the injury to Lance McCullers Jr., but Alexander will most likely just be filling more of an opening role this week. He had nice 1.74 ERA and 1.26 WHIP with 15 K's and eight walks in 20 2/3 innings. Fantasy managers should be avoiding him as a streamer.

The Athletics selected the contract of right-hander Jason Alexander from Triple-A Las Vegas on Monday and optioned right-hander Joey Estes to Las Vegas in a corresponding move. Alexander will be making his first appearance in the big leagues since 2022, when he appeared in 18 games (11 starts) and had a 5.40 ERA and 1.62 WHIP in 71 2/3 innings with the Milwaukee Brewers. The A's bullpen was taxed over the weekend in their series at Coors Field against the Colorado Rockies, so Alexander will provide some length in relief before most likely being sent back down to Las Vegas. The 32-year-old veteran made one start for Vegas this year before his call-up, allowing two runs (one earned) on three hits while walking none and striking out three in 3 1/3 innings pitched. Alexander won't move the needle at all for fantasy managers in any leagues.

The Athletics signed free-agent left-hander Matt Krook and right-hander Jason Alexander to minor-league deals late last week. Krook, 30, pitched one inning in relief for the Baltimore Orioles in 2024 and allowed three runs (two earned) while walking one and striking out two. He saw most of his action at Triple-A Norfolk, posting a 3.92 ERA and 1.39 WHIP with a save, 54 strikeouts and 31 walks in 41 relief appearances. Alexander, 31, hasn't pitched in the majors since debuting in 2022 with the Milwaukee Brewers, when he had a 5.40 ERA and 1.62 WHIP over 71 2/3 innings in 18 appearances (11 starts). He spent this past season pitching for Triple-A Worcester in the Red Sox's organization, going 7-6 with a 4.42 ERA, a 1.32 WHIP and a 129:39 K:BB in 29 outings (27 starts) covering 138 1/3 frames. Both Krook and Alexander are likely to start at Triple-A Las Vegas in 2025.

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jason Alexander (shoulder) is expected to be out until May after re-aggravating his right shoulder. Alexander was trending in the right direction after increasing his workload but rehashed his injury after his shoulder began to flare up. The 29-year-old spent most of his rookie campaign as a starter and saw some bullpen reps. He molded a 5.40 ERA with 46 strikeouts across 71 2/3 innings. Alexander made 11 starts out of 18 appearances and finished with a 1.619 WHIP. The California native is mainly used for pitching depth and won't necessarily have a secure role in the Brewers rotation. Alexander may make a handful of starts, but he'll likely spend most of his time in the bullpen when he returns.

The Milwaukee Brewers have optioned right-hander Jason Alexander to Triple-A Nashville. Alexander made two spot starts for the Brewers early in July before being shifted to a long-relief role out of the bullpen. The 29-year-old has struggled in his first taste of the big leagues this year, allowing 28 earned runs on 58 hits while walking 19 and striking out only 23 hitters in 45 innings of work over 10 appearances (seven starts). He was especially bad in July, giving up 15 earned runs on 19 hits (four home runs) while walking six and fanning eight in 14 1/3 innings. Alexander could be a candidate for some more spot starts in the second half if the Brewers are in a pinch, but fantasy managers should avoid him as a streamer.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jason Alexander made his major-league debut Wednesday and managed to allow just three runs (two earned) to score despite scattering seven hits and three walks across seven innings. He struck out three batters and took a no-decision in the 4-3 loss to the Cubs. It's unclear whether Alexander will receive another start for the club, but the opportunity is there with Brandon Woodruff and Freddy Peralta out for the immediate future. Either way, Alexander isn't worth picking up just yet.

Milwaukee Brewers right-handed pitcher Jason Alexander will make his first big-league start in Wednesday's game at the Cubs, per MLB.com's Adam McCalvy. The Brewers have had several injuries in their rotation, and the 29-year-old will be called upon in a good matchup. Alexander has compiled a 2.64 ERA with a 1.09 WHIP and 17.5% strikeout rate over 47 2/3 innings pitched and seven starts at Triple-A Nashville. While he has pitched well overall and draws a decent matchup, it would be a risky move for fantasy managers to trust him.
