Francisco Mejia Injured on Tuesday
7 years agoCleveland Indians catching prospect Francisco Mejia was forced to leave Tuesday's Triple-A game after being hit by a pitch on the left forearm. Mejia stayed in the game and finished out the inning on the bases, but was replaced behind the plate to start the next half inning. Triple-A Columbus manager Chris Tremie said Mejia would be evaluated further on Wednesday and more light would be shed on the injury then. Mejia is one of the top offensive prospects in Cleveland's system, but he's off to a slow start this year, batting just .197 with a .570 OPS.
