The Chicago White Sox signed left-handed pitcher Tyler Alexander to a one-year deal as they placed Jared Shuster on the Injured List. Alexander, who previously struggled with the Milwaukee Brewers, made a quick transition, pitching within hours of signing. While his metrics aren’t standout, his ability to throw five pitches and maintain a low walk rate might provide valuable depth to the White Sox's bullpen. Meanwhile, Shuster aims to regain effectiveness post-injury after his poor start to the 2025 season.
Kudos to Tyler Alexander's Uber driver. He signed with the White Sox at noon, and then took a 90-minute Uber from Milwaukee to the ballpark. Was pitching by the 4th inning.
The White Sox added another arm to the mix on Sunday, agreeing to a one-year deal with left-handed pitcher Tyler Alexander and placing Jared Shuster on the Injured List.
As we saw on Sunday afternoon, I expect Alexander's impact to be both immediate and underrated.
Talent-wise, nothing jumps off the page with Alexander. His fastball averages around 90 MPH, so location is the key to his success.
