Ian Mejia Extends Shutout Streak
Ian Mejia extended his scoreless streak on Thursday with another impressive outing. In this start, Mejia logged seven shutout frames against Double-A Birmingham. He allowed six hits and no walks. He struck out seven. Since allowing four runs over his first six innings of work this season, Mejia has gone on to log 23 2/3 straight scoreless innings. During this stretch, the 25-year-old has held a strong 1.06 WHIP with a 19:8 K:BB. Last summer, the New Mexico State product spent most of his time with Double-A, where he logged a modest 3.47 ERA with a 1.32 WHIP across 124 1/3 innings of work. Given his improving results at Double-A, fantasy managers should expect No. 24-ranked prospect in Atlanta to move up to Triple-A in the coming weeks.
