Alex

Alex is the owner of I Can't Believe Mize. An inaugural member of the league, he is also a historical member of the redraft league. He is the first member of the league to win a championship, however he has since yet to make an appearance in the playoffs. Before 2017, Alex was one of only two people to ever win either league, along with Erik. Alex is known for his ability to assemble a great group of keepers each year, yet perennially disappoint during the season, as well as his fascination with Asian pitchers. Alex is the first team to both win the Hardy BJ Victorino and the Sacko.

## 2015

* Record: 12-8
* During the season, Alex was a constant competitor for the 4th playoff spot with Randy. They were both tied record-wise, but Randy had a slight lead in total points scored that season, giving him the playoff lead. On the final day of the 20th week of the regular season, Alex had his Cy Young ace pitcher Jake Arrieta starting. Before the matchup, as he was texting Josh regarding the close playoff race, Josh brought up that Randy was ahead in points by a decent margin. Josh reccomended to Alex that he pick up a probable pitcher in order to give himself a fighting chance. Alex, a steadfast activist in the anti-probable-pitcher community, held his ground. In a moment of pure confidence, foresight, and testicular fortitude, Alex said that he wasn't worried about missing the playoffs, because Jake Arrieta will be throwing a no-hitter later that day. That night, on August 30th, 2015, Jake Arrieta threw his first career no-hitter against the Los Angeles Dodgers, a 70+ point game for Alex, giving him the slight points lead against Randy and securing a playoff spot.
* Alex went on to win both matchups in the playoffs, making him the first league champion for the newly-formed league.

* In the offseason, Alex traded Carlos Carrasco, Jake Arrieta, and Eric Hosmer to Randy for Joey Votto, Gary Sanchez, Jose Quintana, and Gerrit Cole.
