Diamondbacks Acquire Infielder Jose Mejia From Baltimore
The Arizona Diamondbacks acquired infielder Jose Mejia and pitchers Kade Strowd and Wellington Aracena from the Baltimore Orioles on Thursday in exchange for infielder Blaze Alexander, a source told The Arizona Republic's Nick Piecoro. Mejia, a 20-year-old Dominican infielder, played in 47 games last year in the Rookie level and hit .274/.418/.411 with an .829 OPS, two home runs, 23 RBI, 22 runs scored, and six stolen bases over 158 plate appearances. He appeared in only two contests for High-A Aberdeen. Mejia will begin his D-backs tenure in the lower levels of the minors in 2026. He's not a high-level prospect by any means, but he could help his cause as he looks to rise through the system because of his ability to play shortstop, second base, third base, first base, left field, and right field.
