Kyle Teel, Edgar Quero Reassigned To Minor-League Camp
3 mins agoChicago White Sox catching prospect Kyle Teel has been reassigned to minor-league camp, along with a host of other players, including fellow catching prospect Edgar Quero. Teel is ranked as the team's No. 2 prospect (MLB No. 32), while Quero comes in at No. 6 (MLB No. 65). That will leave Korey Lee and Matt Thaiss to handle duties for the big-league club, neither of which has had a wRC+ better than 86 to this point in their major-league careers. Teel was a 2023 first-round draft pick, formerly of the Red Sox organization, who hit well until his short stint at Triple-A in 2024 (.255). But he was still able to log a .374 on-base percentage due to his strong 16.3 percent walk rate and showed well this spring, going 5-for-20 with a pair of home runs and a 4:4 BB:K. Quero fared a bit better in '24, slashing .295/.382/.463 during his time at Triple-A, but didn't do much with the bat this spring. Both have an ETA of 2025, according to MLB.com's top-100 prospect list, so we'll see who gets the call first. Whoever it is could make for an intriguing waiver-wire pickup if they earn immediate playing time, especially in deeper leagues.
