Scouting Report
Updated May 19, 2026
Kyle Teel, 24-year-old White Sox catcher, suffered a right knee LCL sprain during a Triple-A rehab assignment on May 17, 2026, after initially straining his hamstring during the World Baseball Classic in early March. The knee injury is expected to sideline him 3-6 weeks. Teel was performing well in his rehab assignment (.267 BA, .857 OPS over 15 at-bats) before the setback. He hit .273/.375/.411 with 8 HRs in 78 games during his 2025 rookie season.
