Happy Birthday to ~
OF Brauly Mejia (20)
Signed by the Astros as an international free agent in May 2012 out of the Dominican Republic, Mejia spent most of his 2014 season with the Gulf Coast League Astros, hitting .273/.394/.429 in 49 games. He played his last five games of the season with Quad Cities, and let's just say that his bat didn't have time to get warmed up.

Happy Birthday - 10/28
OF Brauly Mejia (18)
On a vastly underperforming offensive DSL team, the NDFA from the Dominican was one of the few bright spots as he hit .250/.323/.298 in 36 games in his first season in the organization. In his final 10 games, that was .273/.385/.364.
