Infielder CJ Alexander passed through waivers unclaimed and was assigned outright to Triple-A Oklahoma City after being designated for assignment by the Dodgers, per the transaction log at MiLB.com.
The 28-year-old Alexander has bounced from the A’s, to the Yankees, to the Dodgers via waivers in the past five weeks. Los Angeles will succeed at getting him through waivers, which will allow the Dodgers to retain him as a depth option without committing a 40-man roster spot. Alexander has not been outrighted in the past and doesn’t have three years of MLB service, so he doesn’t have the opportunity to reject the assignment in favor of free agency.
Though Alexander has been with three clubs this year, he’s only seen big league time with the A’s, going 3-for-17 with a trio of singles. Alexander has four hits in 25 big league plate appearances overall, dating back to last year’s cup of coffee with the Royals. He’s struggled offensively in brief Triple-A looks with the Dodgers and Yankees this season but hit well during his time with the Athletics’ top affiliate. Overall, he’s hitting .236/.333/.426 in 249 Triple-A plate appearances this season and is a career .259/.328/.482 hitter in parts of three Triple-A campaigns.
Alexander has primarily played the infield corners in his professional career, though he does have about 300 innings of corner outfield experience under his belt as well. He’ll stick with the Dodgers as a lefty-swinging depth option who could get another look if injuries arise as the season wears on.
