Taking reins at third base Alexander will start at third base and bat eighth in Tuesday's game against the White Sox.

Impact The 27-year-old has been used in a super utility role for the bulk of this season, but Alexander could be settling in as the Orioles' primary third baseman against righties over Coby Mayo. Alexander has garnered five of the past six starts at third base for the Orioles, and 13 of his last 14 starts have come at the hot corner.

Heading to bench Sunday Alexander is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

Impact Alexander had started in each of the Orioles' last three games, but he could shift back into more of a utility role after Baltimore reinstated two key lineup cogs in Adley Rutschman (concussion) and Dylan Beavers (oblique) from the injured list Sunday. The 27-year-old had made each of his last five starts at third base, but Coby Mayo could end up seeing the bulk of the time at the hot corner since he'll have fewer opportunities to serve as a designated hitter with Rutschman and Beavers back in the fold.

Checking back into starting nine Alexander will start at third base and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Angels, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Impact Alexander exited Monday's series opener due to a right knee contusion and was held out of Tuesday's 5-1 loss, but the day off was apparently all that he needed to move past the minor injury. He'll settle back in at third base, where he appears to have supplanted Coby Mayo as the Orioles' preferred option. Dating back to the beginning of June, Alexander has submitted a .413/.451/.674 slash line with two home runs, two stolen bases, nine RBI and seven runs in 17 games.

Sidelined Tuesday Alexander (knee) is not in the starting lineup Tuesday against the Angels, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Alexander was forced to exit Monday's contest against the Angels early with a muscle contusion on his right knee, and he will now miss at least one additional game as a result. Coby Mayo will draw the start at third base, batting fifth versus Los Angeles.

Impact Alexander's Monday night was cut short after fouling a ball off his knee which resulted in a knee contusion in the top of the second. When the 27-year-old was on the bench before going out for defense in the bottom of the third, he felt his knee lock up.
