The Royals designated Alexander for assignment Saturday, Jaylon T. Thompson of The Kansas City Star reports.
Alexander and Austin Nola were bumped from the 40-man roster to make room for waiver acquisitions Tommy Pham and Robbie Grossman. Outside of four appearances with the big club this summer, Alexander has spent the season to date with Triple-A Omaha, slashing .306/.354/.566 with 17 home runs and 55 RBI in 83 games. While he's old for the level at 28, his success in the minors this season could land Alexander on another team's 40-man roster.
