Scouting Report: Teague Conrad
Chicago Cubs | P
Overall
Summary
Kyle Teel, 24-year-old Chicago White Sox catcher, suffered a Grade 2 right hamstring strain in early March 2026 during the World Baseball Classic. After over 8 weeks of recovery and successfully testing baserunning, he began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte in mid-May. However, during his fourth rehab game on May 18, 2026, Teel tweaked his right knee ligament during an at-bat. The White Sox announced he would be sidelined for at least 3 weeks, with a potential 6-week recovery timeline. Manager Will Venable expressed relief it wasn't a tear but acknowledged the setback. Teel had shown promise early in his rehab assignment with 4 hits in 8 at-bats including 1 home run before the knee injury occurred.
