INJURIES

Converting to pitcher Mejia threw a 25-pitch live session against minor-league hitters Saturday, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Mejia has played primarily as an infielder since beginning his professional career in 2013, though he only has 17 games of big-league experience under his belt -- the last of which came with the Royals in 2020. He's never been regarded as much of an offensive threat, slashing just .192/.292/.314 at Triple-A Rochester last season, so the 30-year-old will now pivot to the mound in an attempt to give his career new life. Golden relays that Mejia's fastball tops out at 98 mph and averages a staggering 20 inches of vertical break, though his mechanics are still very raw at this stage.

Sent to alternate site Mejia was optioned to the alternate training site Wednesday.
Impact Mejia was promoted to the big-league club last week and went 1-for-6 with a double and a stolen base in two appearances. Franchy Cordero (wrist) returns from the injured list in a corresponding move.

Singer shuts down Tigers in Kansas City's 4-0 win

Brady Singer was stellar for a second straight start, allowing two hits in six innings, and the Kansas City Royals blanked the Detroit Tigers 4-0
SEPTEMBER 17, 2020 • Associated Press
Sent down Thursday Mejia was optioned to the Royals' alternate training site Thursday, Jeffrey Flanagan of MLB.com reports.
Impact As someone capable of playing almost any position on the field but incapable of doing much damage at the plate, Mejia was a luxury option on the 30-man roster. However, with Thursday being the deadline to cut down to 28 men, he was a natural option to be demoted. He is 0-for-8 with five strikeouts this season.
