Blaze Alexander Returns From Knee Injury on Wednesday
Baltimore Orioles infielder/outfielder Blaze Alexander (knee) is starting at third base and batting ninth for Wednesday's series finale in Anaheim against the Los Angeles Angels and right-hander Jose Soriano, per MLB.com. Alexander had to be pulled from Monday's series opener against the Angels after fouling a ball off his right knee. He missed Game 2 of the series on Tuesday, but he's back in there on Wednesday. The 27-year-old former 11th-round pick by the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2018 has taken over at the hot corner in Baltimore over Coby Mayo with Jordan Westburgh (elbow) out for the entire 2026 season. Alexander is hitting a strong .310 (53-for-171) in his first 67 games with the O's, but he lacks power and won't have much DFS appeal on Wednesday at the bottom of the batting order. He's added three home runs, 23 RBI, eight steals, and 22 runs scored across his 190 plate appearances. In five career at-bats against Soriano, Alexander is hitting .400 with a 1.000 OPS and one RBI.
