AI Summary
Kyle Teel has been diagnosed with a sprained LCL in addition to his hamstring injury and will miss 3-6 weeks. The injury occurred during a rehab contest for Triple-A Charlotte, delaying his season debut with the Chicago White Sox and significantly impacting his season.
It's an unfortunate setback for Teel as he appeared to be close to making it back to Chicago for his season debut before suffering the injury during a rehab contest for Triple-A Charlotte over the weekend. The 24-year-old backstop will be on the shelf until at least early June before he's potentially an option for the White Sox. It's quickly turning into a bit of a lost season for Teel, who entered the year as one of the top young catchers in the game. Drew Romo and Edgar Quero will continue handling the catching duties for Chicago in his absence.
