2026 Fantasy Outlook
After being acquired from the Red Sox as the centerpiece of the trade that sent Garrett Crochet to Boston, Teel spent the first two months of the 2025 season knocking around Triple-A pitching before getting the call to the big leagues. The 24-year-old looked at home right away and finished with a wRC+ of 125 while boasting a 12.5 percent walk rate and .375 on-base percentage. Fellow catcher Edgar Quero beat Teel to the majors and also played well, but Teel received priority treatment behind the plate and against right-handed pitching, setting Teel up to be the team's top catcher in 2026. Teel's 25.9 percent strikeout rate was a tad high, and the left-handed hitter had just a .546 OPS in limited chances versus southpaws. That said, while Teel's ceiling from a power perspective might not be super high, he should continue to get on base at a high clip, and he's also a better bet than most catchers to chip in with some stolen bases.

Signed a one-year contract with the White Sox in June of 2025.
Retreating to bench Wednesday
Teel is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.
Analysis
Teel will be getting a routine breather for the matinee contest, paving the way for Edgar Quero to start at catcher. The White Sox had included Teel in each of their last three lineups, with the rookie going 3-for-13 with a home run and two RBI over that stretch.

Stat Review
How does Kyle Teel compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
Teel was traded from the Red Sox to the White Sox this offseason as the headliner in a four-prospect package that sent Garrett Crochet to Boston. The No. 14 overall pick in 2023, Teel dominated every pro league he played in before stumbling slightly (.255/.374/.343 slash line, two HR in 28 games) in his first taste of Triple-A. He is a pure hitter and on-base machine over a slugger, but he has enough pop to be a 15-20 homer threat thanks to his excellent hit tool and swing decisions. Teel has the glove and the arm to stick at catcher and play a lot during his peak seasons. He may end up being better in on-base percentage leagues than batting average leagues, but he should provide an above-average ratio in both formats relative to the position. Teel is a 45-grade runner, but he's opportunistic and could chip in a handful of steals (12-for-17 on the bases last year). Since Teel didn't dominate at Triple-A and isn't on the 40-man roster, we may not see him in the majors until May or June, but he's very close to being big-league ready. New teammate Edgar Quero is arguably an even better catching prospect than Teel and should beat Teel to the majors, and if they end up splitting the catching duties evenly long term it will cap each of their outputs.
