Blaze Alexander is on the Arizona Diamondbacks’ opening day roster. Left-hander Jordan Montgomery is not. Alexander will make his big-league debut and start at designated hitter on Thursday night when the defending National League champion Diamondbacks host the Colorado Rockies.

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Blaze Alexander makes a late throw on an infield single by Milwaukee Brewers’ Christian Arroyo during the first inning of a spring training baseball game Sunday, March 3, 2024, in Scottsdale, Ariz. Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Blaze Alexander, left, grimaces as Milwaukee Brewers’ Jackson Chourio, right, slides into him at second base with a double during the first inning of a spring training baseball game, Sunday, March 3, 2024, in Scottsdale, Ariz.

Alexander forced his way into the big leagues with a hot bat and defensive versatility — he can play third base, shortstop and second base. The tough decision Lovullo referenced was deciding between Alexander and Emmanuel Rivera, who was designated for assignment.
