MLB Trade Rumors • • sports
Key Points:
- The Chicago White Sox have reinstated catcher Kyle Teel from the 60-day injured list after nearly three months, replacing Edgar Quero, who was optioned to Triple-A Charlotte.
- Teel was sidelined due to a Grade 2 hamstring strain and a subsequent sprained LCL in his right knee but is now expected to make his season debut.
- Teel was acquired in a major offseason trade with the Red Sox and had a strong rookie season, while Quero's performance has declined both offensively and defensively.
- White Sox catchers have struggled offensively this season, posting the lowest combined batting average and on-base percentage in Major League Baseball.
- Teel’s return bolsters a White Sox team currently second in the AL Central and holding the second Wild Card spot, as they prepare for a key series against the division-leading Guardians.
