Mejias made his Big League debut during the Bicentennial year, playing in 18 games for the Cardinals, hitting .143 with three hits over 21 at-bats while playing all three outfield positions.
In November of 1976 he was traded over to the Montreal Expos, just in time for Topps to have him airbrushed and placed into a multi-player rookie card for their 1977 set, so there was never any card depicting him with his first team.
He’d go on to play two seasons with the Expos before moving on to the Chicago Cubs for part of 1979 before playing out his career with parts of three years with the Cincinnati Reds, playing his last professional game in 1981.
He finished his MLB tenure with a .247 average, with 86 hits over 348 at-bats in 334 games, hitting four homers and driving in 31 runs while scoring 51 himself.
