View Draft Report
Mejia hit well for Arizona this year. He has a line-drive stroke with an all-field approach. Mejia is an average runner with good footwork and soft hands. His pure arm strength is below average, but he has a quick release, which makes it play up. Mejia could play shortstop some, but he profiles best as a utility player in the big leagues. Mejia's cousin is Brewers righthander Marco Estrada.
