The 28-year-old is expected to head to Triple-A and replace Jackson Quero who is currently sidelined due to injury. Mejía spent the spring with the Rays as a non-roster invitee, but couldn’t make the Opening Day roster. He was once a top prospect in baseball, but he hasn’t put it all together, especially offensively where he slashed .227/.258/.400 across 160 plate appearances last season with Tampa Bay.

Mejía was one of the top prospects in baseball a couple years ago, but simply never put it together at the highest level. The 28-year-old backstop was in Rays camp this spring as a non-roster invitee.

No real surprises here among the latest batch of cuts from Rays camp, but Uwasawa stands out as one of the more notable ones since he signed a minor league pact with the Rays during the offseason to attempt to make the jump to the majors from Japan.
