when I click on the clock it looks like alacritty opens for a split of a second and quickly disappears. Any reasons why I cannot get cal command to
open?

It is probably working just fine: alacritty opens, cal runs, exits,
and then alacritty closes since the process `cal' exited.

Try the equivalent of "sh -c 'cal && sleep 200'".

or just add --hold option to alacritty and it wont close when cal exits.
