Working as opener Wednesday Alexander will serve as the opening pitcher in Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

Set to operate as opener Alexander will operate as the Rangers' opening pitcher Monday in Cleveland, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Alexander is set to become the first pitcher since 1969 to record saves in back-to-back games and then start the following contest. He'll likely handle the first inning before handing the ball off to the Rangers' bulk pitcher, who has yet to be announced. Right-handed arm Cal Quantrill sticks out as a top candidate to follow southpaw Alexander against the Guardians.

Grabs another save Sunday Alexander earned the save in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Blue Jays, striking out one in a perfect ninth inning.

Impact Alexander has now recorded saves in back-to-back games after going nearly three months without a save opportunity. The left-hander has allowed just one run in his last nine appearances (9.1 innings) to lower his ERA to 2.62 with a 1.31 WHIP and 27:10 K:BB across 34.1 innings this season.

JUNE 28 • ROTOWIRE

Picks up third save Alexander worked a perfect ninth inning Saturday to record his third save of the season in a 7-4 win over the Blue Jays. He didn't strike out a batter.

Impact The 31-year-old southpaw hadn't picked up a save since March 30, but with Jacob Latz and Jakob Junis each having worked the prior two days, Alexander found himself handling closing duties again and got the job done. He's been scored upon in just one of eight appearances in June, posting a 1.08 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 6:2 K:BB over 8.2 innings this month, but his high-leverage work has been limited and he has zero wins and only one hold during that time, in addition to Saturday's save.

Working as opener Monday Alexander will serve as the Rangers' opener Monday in Miami, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

Impact The left-handed Alexander will get the first inning or two versus the Marlins before handing things off to Kumar Rocker, who is slated to handle the bulk of the workload for Texas. Alexander has turned in a 2.97 ERA and 23:10 K:BB over 30.1 frames for the Rangers this season.

Opening Tuesday's game Alexander will start Tuesday's game against the Rockies, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact The left-hander has plenty of big-league experience as a starter and will make his first start of 2026 on Tuesday. Alexander has been effective out of the bullpen this year with a 2.14 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 16:6 K:BB across 21 innings, but he shouldn't be expected to cover more than an inning or two in Colorado given that he's that he's pitched more than two frames in an appearance just once this season. Kumar Rocker is expected to follow as the bulk reliever.

Shutout in relief Alexander went one inning allowing no runs on two hits in a 2-1 loss to the Athletics on Sunday.

Impact Once again Alexander pitched a scoreless frame, marking the 12th appearance he has done so to date. The 31-year-old has allowed just one earned run, in tune to his 0.63 ERA, through his first 14.1 innings pitched. The left-hander has been the most efficient and utilized asset out of the Rangers bullpen through 28 games.

Earns second save Alexander earned the save in Monday's 5-2 win over the Orioles, tossing a clean ninth inning while striking out two.

Impact Alexander has converted both of the chances he's had for saves early on in the season. Normal closer Robert Garcia had pitched two days in a row entering Monday, so the 31-year-old was called upon to record the last three outs in the ninth and was razor sharp, striking out two batters in a three up, three down ninth. Alexander probably isn't putting Garcia's role in any danger yet, but it is a situation worth monitoring moving forward should he continue to pitch well.

Secures save Saturday Alexander earned a save after tossing one inning, allowing an unearned run on one hit and a hit-by-pitch while striking out a batter in Saturday's 5-4 extra-inning win over the Phi...

Impact Alexander was the next man up after Texas turned to Robert Garcia and Chris Martin in the ninth inning. Alexander hit Otto Kemp with an 84.8 mph cutter to open the frame before later surrendering a two-out single by Bryce Harper, which drove in the inherited runner at second base. The southpaw was then able to settle in and strand Kemp at third base to end the game by getting Alec Bohm to pop out for the final out. Alexander isn't necessarily in the mix quite yet for the closer's role, but he is the first Ranger to notch a save in 2026.
