"Tyler Alexander, designated for assignment by the Brewers, has opted for free agency instead of accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A."
"Despite a rough season with a 6.19 ERA, advanced metrics suggest Alexander has pitched better than his statistics indicate, with a FIP of 3.57."
"Alexander's struggles include a .331 BABIP and a poor 47.2% strand rate, which is notably below his career average of 71.7%."
"At 30 years old, Alexander offers teams affordability and versatility as a depth option for bullpens or rotations after parting ways with the Brewers."
Tyler Alexander, former Brewers left-hander, has chosen free agency following his designation for assignment and rejection of a Triple-A move. Despite a challenging performance this season, including a 6.19 ERA in 36.1 innings, advanced metrics like FIP (3.57) indicate he may have performed better than suggested by traditional stats. His struggles this year, likely due to a high .331 BABIP and low 47.2% left-on-base percentage, contrast sharply with his career averages. Now at 30, he offers a cost-effective roster addition with experience in various pitching roles.
