Evan David Meek (born May 12, 1985 in Template:City-state) is a Major League Baseball relief pitcher for the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Early career

Meek attended Inglemoor High School in Template:City-state. Afterwards he played for Bellevue Community College also in Washington.[1]

Minor leagues

After being select by the Minnesota Twins in the 2002 Major League Baseball Draft Meek began playing for the Twins affiliate in the Appalachian League. After three years in the Twins organization Meek spent the next two seasons in the minor league ranks of the San Diego Padres and the Tampa Bay Devil Rays.[2] In the 2007 Rule 5 Draft Meek was selected away from the Devil Rays by the Pittsburg Pirates. This means Meek will have to remain on the active roster for the Pirates for the entire 2008 season or else the Pirates will have to offer him back to the Devil Rays for half the amount they paid for him.[3]

Major leagues

Meek made his major league debut on April 2, 2008 with the Pittsburg Pirates. Meek recorded his first career lost against the Chicago Cubs on April 7, 2008, when he gave up two runs on five walks in one inning.
