Kyle Teel Activated on Monday, Priority Pick-Up Ahead of Season Debut?
The Chicago White Sox have activated catcher Kyle Teel (knee, hamstring) from the 60-day injured list ahead of their three-game set against the Cleveland Guardians. Catcher Edgar Quero was optioned to Triple-A Charlotte to make room for Teel on the active roster. Teel has yet to make his 2026 season debut. The 24-year-old suffered a hamstring strain in the World Baseball Classic in March and then sprained the LCL in his right knee in late May while on a rehab assignment. Teel flashed high upside across 297 plate appearances after making his MLB debut in 2025, hitting .273/.375/.411 with eight home runs, 35 RBI, 38 runs scored, and three stolen bases. He's dominated Triple-A pitching while rehabbing from his injuries in 2026, slashing .387/.441/.613 with two home runs across 34 trips to the plate. Now that he's active, Teel is a must-add catcher in any fantasy league where he remains available on the waiver wire.
