Kyle Teel News
The Chicago White Sox acquired catching prospect Kyle Teel from the Boston Red Sox on Wednesday as part of a package for left-hander Garrett Crochet, according to sources. The White Sox also landed outfielder Braden Montgomery, infielder Chase Meidroth and right-hander Wikelman Gonzalez. Teel, ranked by MLB Pipeline as Boston's No. 4 prospect, was a first-round pick in 2023 out of Virginia. In his first professional season, the 22-year-old backstop hit a combined .288/.386/.433 with 13 home runs and 12 stolen bases in 112 games for Double-A Portland and Triple-A Worcester, rising quickly through Boston's farm system. The White Sox also have prospect Edgar Quero at the position, but Teel has more upside from the left side in his bat and could force his way onto the major-league roster as early as 2025. Teel should already be rostered in dynasty/keeper leagues.

Kyle Teel Heating Up At Triple-A
Boston Red Sox catching prospect Kyle Teel has begun to heat up at Triple-A after getting off to a slow start. In his past three games, he has tallied at least one hit in each of them with a .273 AVG and four RBI. Prior to this stretch, the backstop he carried a disappointing .089/.179/.086 line with just three hits, two RBI, and a 4:12 BB:K ratio across his first nine games. Earlier this season, the former first-round selection in last year's draft posted a strong .289/.390/.462 line with 20 doubles, 11 home runs, and nine stolen bases through 84 games at Double-A Portland. MLB.com ranks Teel as the third-best prospect in the Boston system and the 27th overall in the sport. If Teel can continue to find his footing at Triple-A, he could have a chance to make his major league debut late in the season if the Red Sox remain in the Wild Card race.

Kyle Teel Gets Shot At Triple-A Worcester
Boston Red Sox catcher prospect Kyle Teel has been promoted to Triple-A Worcester. The 22-year-old hit .298/.390/.462 with 11 homers, 60 RBI, and nine stolen bases for Double-A Portland before being rewarded with the promotion. MLB's No. 5 catcher prospect, Teel offers a polished approach at the plate with power and speed to boot. His nine stolen bases this year show that he has a little upside in that category at the catcher position, which is rare. He will showcase his skills at a new level looking to impress enough for one more call-up. The future is bright for Teel.

Kyle Teel Tallies 11th Home Run Of The Season
Boston Red Sox catching prospect Kyle Teel went 2-for-4 with a home run on Friday evening. Across his past eight games, the young backstop has held a strong .300/.405/.567 slash line with two home runs, five RBI, a 6:8 BB:K ratio, and two stole bases.

Last summer, Teel logged only 26 games at the lower levels of the minor leagues after being selected with the 14th overall selection out of Virginia. The 22-year-old has continued to progress through the minor leagues rather quickly and has yet to face a major roadblock. Teel should see time in the big leagues next summer and could get a taste of Triple-A in the coming weeks.

In 71 games, the 22-year-old has posted a strong .301/.390/.459 line with nine home runs, 52 RBI, seven stolen bases, and a 38:75 BB:K ratio.

Kyle Teel In Nine-Game Slump

Kyle Teel Launches Eighth Long Ball Of The Season
Boston Red Sox catching prospect Kyle Teel went 2-for-4 with his eighth home run of the season in the opening game of a doubleheader on Friday. Through 54 games at Double-A Portland, the 14th overall pick in last year's draft has performed very well with a .313/.405/.493 slash line with 45 RBI and five stolen bases. Teel progressed through the lower levels of the minors very quickly last summer as he started in the Rookie League and ended by logging nine games at Double-A. Through this 26-game stretch, the Virginia product posted a .363/.482/.495 line with two home runs and 22 RBI. Teel is considered the 29th-best prospect in baseball and third in Boston on MLB Pipeline. He is projected to make his major league debut next summer but could push for a late-season call-up, especially due to how well he has performed in the minors over his first two seasons.

Kyle Teel Pushing For Promotion To Triple-A
Boston Red Sox catcher Kyle Teel was the best catching prospect in the 2023 draft and was ultimately selected No. 14 overall. He's already lived up to the hype throughout his first year of pro baseball, demonstrating impressive plate discipline, great bat-to-ball ability, decent power, and terrific skills behind the dish. Specifically, he frames pitches quite well and also has a strong arm. He has the potential to be an All-Star and could presumably give Boston the best catching tandem in baseball between himself and Connor Wong. Teel has spent all of 2024 at Double-A, but he's coming off a big week that will surely push him closer to Triple-A. Over his last six games, he went 10-for-24 with three homers, 11 RBI, three walks, and five strikeouts. He also stole two bases. There's never a "sure thing" when talking about baseball prospects, but Teel is just about as close as you'll get.
