Kyle Teel Earns International League Player of the Week Honors
Kyle Teel earned International League Player of the Week honors for his performance last week, going 8-for-16 with three home runs, six RBI, seven runs scored, and a 6:5 BB:K over a five-game stretch. After an underwhelming 14 games to open the season, the 23-year-old has now hit safely in 27 of his last 29 games and has gotten on base via hit or walk in 32 straight contests. Chicago's second-ranked prospect (MLB No. 28) is now slashing .293/.397/.490 with seven home runs through 43 games for Triple-A Charlotte. Expect the former first-round draft pick to earn a promotion to the big leagues in the coming months, who could be a solid offensive catcher for fantasy, depending on how the Sox divvy up playing time between him and fellow backstop Edgar Quero who has been hitting for average (.273) but with zero home runs in 99 at-bats and only a 101 wRC+.
