Adalberto Mejia: Let go by White Sox
Mejia was released by the White Sox on Monday, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.
Mejia was part of the White Sox's 60-man roster pool to begin the season, but he'll now be removed from the organization. The southpaw pitched for three teams in 2019 and posted a 6.61 ERA and 1.72 WHIP over 31.1 innings. Given his lack of results last year, it's unclear whether he'll find a spot on another 60-man roster during the abbreviated 2020 season.

White Sox's Adalberto Mejia: Joins satellite camp
Mejia joined the White Sox's 60-man player pool Tuesday, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.
Mejia will be part of the group of 16 players working out at the team's secondary camp, meaning he's unlikely to be one of the first names called on in the event of an injury crisis. He's received big-league time in each of the last four seasons but hasn't stood out, posting a career 4.62 ERA in 154 innings and a 6.61 mark in 31.1 frames last year.

White Sox's Adalberto Mejia: Signs with White Sox
Mejia signed a minor-league contract with the White Sox on Tuesday, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.
Mejia was designated for assignment and released by the Angels earlier in the month, but he'll still get a shot to earn a roster spot after being invited to the White Sox's big-league camp. He's not particularly likely to do so, however, as he struggled to a 6.61 ERA and a 14.5 percent walk rate in 31.1 innings for the Twins, Cardinals and Angels last season.

Mejia was released by the Angels on Friday.
Mejia was designated for assignment Tuesday, and after clearing waivers he's headed for free agency. He spent time with St. Louis, Minnesota and Los Angeles in 2019, posting a 6.61 ERA and 1.72 WHIP with a 30:21 K:BB across 31.1 frames out of the bullpen.

Angels' Adalberto Mejia: Sent off 40-man roster
Mejia was designated for assignment by the Angels on Tuesday, Maria Torres of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Mejia made 35 major-league appearances with the Twins, Cardinals and Angels in 2019, but he struggled with a 6.61 ERA and 1.72 WHIP. The southpaw has reached the majors in each of the past four seasons, but he has failed to make much of an impact in limited action.

Angels' Adalberto Mejia: Back with big club
The Angels selected Mejia's contract from Triple-A Salt Lake ahead of Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Red Sox. He retired two of the three batters he faced in his relief appearance.
Mejia has bounced around between three different organizations this season and is currently in the midst of his second tour with the Angels. The lefty will get a look in the big-league bullpen down the stretch with the hope of solidifying his hold on a 40-man roster spot heading into the offseason. Over his 25 appearances this season between the Angels, Cardinals and Twins, Mejia owns a 7.86 ERA and 28:18 K:BB across 26.1 innings.

Angels' Adalberto Mejia: Reclaimed by Angels
Mejia was claimed off waivers by the Angels on Thursday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Mejia will head back to the Angels after a two-game, three-inning sojourn with St. Louis in which he allowed three earned runs. The 26-year-old appeared in four games with the Angels earlier this season before being DFA'd on July 26. He's currently out of minor-league options, so he's likely to get an extended look as the Halos assess his potential role on the squad next season.

Cardinals' Adalberto Mejia: Removed from 40-man roster
Mejia was designated for assignment by the Cardinals on Tuesday.

Junior Fernandez's contract was selected from Triple-A Memphis in a corresponding move.

Cardinals' Adalberto Mejia: Scooped up by St. Louis
Mejia was claimed by the Cardinals on Tuesday.
Mejia will be added to the big-league roster after being picked up by the Cardinals. He owns an ugly 7.32 ERA and 1.68 WHIP with a 21:13 K:BB over 19.2 innings and was designated for assignment by the Angels on Friday, though St. Louis is hopeful a change in scenery is just what the lefty needs to get back on track.

Angels' Adalberto Mejia: Claimed by Angels
Mejia was claimed off waivers by the Angels and added to the team's big-league roster Saturday.
After being primarily a starter for most of his professional career, Mejia had pitched exclusively out of the pen in 15.1 innings for the Twins this season. The change of roles has not treated him well, as he owns an awful 8.80 ERA and a 16.9 percent strikeout rate. It's not yet known whether the Angels will leave in him in the bullpen or transition him back to a starting role.

Twins' Adalberto Mejia: Designated for assigment
Mejia was designated for assignment Saturday, Shannon Drayer of 710 ESPN Seattle reports.
The Twins needed to make room for Jake Odorizzi (blister) to be activated from the injured list. Once a top prospect, Mejia was no longer being developed as a starting pitcher, and he struggled as a big-league reliever. He could get claimed by another team, given his pedigree and the fact that he's left-handed.

Twins' Adalberto Mejia: Returns from long absence
Mejia (calf) was activated from the 60-day injured list Tuesday, Brandon Warne of ZoneCoverage.com reports.
Mejia hasn't pitched since the end of April due to a calf strain. He posted a very poor 8.74 ERA in 11.1 innings prior to suffering the injury and will have to be significantly better if he's to keep a bullpen job. Ronald Torreyes was outrighted to Triple-A Rochester in a corresponding move.

Twins' Adalberto Mejia: Transferred to 60-day IL
Mejia (calf) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Wednesday.
Mejia has been out since the beginning of May with a calf strain. He's already on a rehab assignment and appears likely to return soon, as even his shift to the 60-day injured list leaves him with little time left on his rehab window. The move makes room on the 40-man roster for Sean Poppen, whose contract was selected in a corresponding move.

Twins' Adalberto Mejia: Moves rehab to Double-A
Mejia (calf) will shift his rehab to Double-A Pensacola, Brandon Warne of ZoneCoverage.com reports.
Mejia will join Pensacola after getting through a pair of scoreless rehab appearances for High-A Fort Myers with no issues, allowing two hits while striking out three in two innings. It remains to be seen how many additional rehab appearances Mejia will need to make before returning from a strained calf that has kept him on the shelf since the beginning of May.
