Chicago White Sox catching prospect Kyle Teel went 1-for-2 with two walks, an RBI, and two runs scored on Sunday for Triple-A Charlotte, extending his current hit streak to 12 games and hitting safely in 19 of his last 20. During the 12-game stretch, the left-handed hitter is 15-for-44 (.341), raising his season-long slash line to .264/.361/.416 with a .358 wOBA and 107 wRC+. The former first-round draft pick is expected to make a big league debut this year, and it could come within the next month if he keeps hitting. Chicago's second-ranked prospect would in all likelihood join fellow prospect (Chicago's No. 5) Edgar Quero at the big league level, but with Quero holding his own in the majors, it's unclearwhat type of playing time split there would be, which could limit Teel's usefulness for fantasy.

Chicago White Sox catching prospect went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored on Tuesday for Triple-A Charlotte. The 23-year-old has raised his batting average 63 points since April 13, going 14-for-44 (.318) over that 11-game stretch, with five RBI, nine runs scored, and a stolen base. Chicago's second-ranked prospect (MLB No. 29) is now slashing .247/.352/.398 through 25 games, and should push for a major league debut this season. In season-long leagues, unless you're in a very deep AL-only league, with fellow prospect Edgar Quero in the majors now as well, it might be best to see who gets more playing time before using a valuable roster spot for stashing the former first-round draft pick.

Chicago White Sox catching prospect Kyle Teel hit a solo home run in a 1-for-5 day at the plate for Triple-A Charlotte on Sunday, his third of the season. After a solid opening weekend to begin the year, the left-handed hitter went into a 3-for-37 (.081) cold stretch, but has shown signs of coming out of the slump recently, now having collected at least one hit in five straight contests. The former first-round draft pick is slashing .214/.321/.414 with three home runs and an 11:25 BB:K through 19 games overall. Teel is expected to make his big league debut this season, but with the White Sox recently promoting fellow backstop Edgar Quero to the big league club, it looks like Teel will have to wait a bit longer. The 23-year-old has long-term fantasy value, but for 2025 fantasy leagues, managers may want to see how things shake out in terms of playing time before trying to stash him away.

Chicago White Sox catching prospect Kyle Teel went 6-for-12 with a double and two home runs during his first three games of the Triple-A regular season. Teel tallied nine RBI and held a 2:2 BB:K. In the offseason, Teel was one of the top pieces sent to Chicago in exchange for left-handed pitcher Garrett Crochet. Last season, Teel spent most of his time at the Double-A level before receiving a brief taste of Triple-A. In 84 games at Double-A, Teel posted a .298/.390/.462 slash line 20 doubles and 11 home runs with nine stolen bases. During his first 28 games at Triple-A, the former 14th overall pick posted a modest .255 AVG. However, it appears the young backstop has taken the next step. He is a name to closely monitor in two-catcher leagues as he could push for an early-season MLB debut.

Chicago 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.

Chicago White Sox catching prospect Kyle Teel has been swinging a hot bat during spring training and is making a strong case to be on the Opening Day roster. Through 11 contests, Teel has posted a .333/.474/.800 slash line with one double, two home runs, and a 4:4 BB:K. He has added six RBI and scored four runs. Teel was shipped to Chicago in a package that sent starting pitching Garrett Crochet to Boston in the offseason. The former 13th overall pick in the 2023 MLB Draft is considered one of the top catching prospects in baseball. Last season, Teel opened his campaign with Double-A and held a .298/.390/.462 line with 20 doubles and 11 long balls. He then earned a taste of Triple-A where he posted a .255/.374/.343 line with three doubles and two long balls across 28 games. Even if he were to open the season at Triple-A, he would be a popular stash candidate, as he may need only another brief look at Triple-A.
