May 13, 2025
The Athletics optioned Alvarado to Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Alvarado made two appearances during his four-day stint in the majors, giving up three earned runs and striking out four batters over 2.2 innings. He'll now head back to the minors in favor of Jason Alexander, who was recalled from Las Vegas in a corresponding move. However, if Alvarado maintains something close to his 3.45 ERA and 0.92 WHIP in Triple-A, he will remain a candidate to return to the big club later in the season.
