Kyle Teel Gets a New Shirt as He Joins the Chicago White Sox for Big League Debut
- The Chicago White Sox added catcher Kyle Teel to their major league roster on Friday, June 7, 2025, prior to the start of their series against the Kansas City Royals at Rate Field.
- This promotion followed reports on Thursday evening and reflected Teel's strong performance with Triple-A Charlotte, where he reached base safely in 38 of 39 games since April 10.
- At 23 years old and ranked as the White Sox's second-best prospect by MLB.com, Teel compiled a.295 average along with eight home runs, a dozen doubles, 30 runs batted in, and crossed the plate 34 times during 50 games at the Triple-A level.
- General manager Chris Getz credited Teel’s strong performance for his promotion, noting, "A lot of it was just Kyle's production, quite honestly," while the team sent catcher Korey Lee to their Charlotte affiliate.
- Teel made his major-league debut that day, singled and walked twice in a 7-2 White Sox win, and will split catching duties with Edgar Quero as the team strengthens its young catching tandem.
