Francisco Mejia has a big day on Tuesday

Francisco Mejia went 3-for-3 with a homer, a double, and two RBI as the Padres played the Marlins on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact:
The 23-year-old is an interesting late round pick at fantasy's weakest position (catcher) but it's tough to envision where the playing time comes from. Mejia is expected to split time with defensive standout Austin Hedges. The Padres are unlikely to consistently bench Hedges due to his value behind the plate. Mejia should still play a good amount, but his fantasy upside is limited at the moment. If Mejia were guaranteed everyday at bats he would easily be a top-10 catcher.
