Kyle Teel's Rehab Progress: White Sox Catcher's Path Back

0:00On April 24th, White Sox Ketcher Kyle Teal remains sidelined by a grade 2 right hamstring strain he picked up on March 10th during the world, baseball classic. General manager Chris Getts says he's not quite ready for a minor league rehab assignment ahead of their homestand against the nationals. Teal wants a quick stint in Charlotte once cleared, but the team plans to take a slow after he missed all of spring training and the regular season start. Getts stressed, building up at bats, catching reps, and base running to avoid any setbacks. Teal got back to catching soon after the injury and hoped for an early return, but soreness slowed him during hitting drills. His original 4-6 week timeline passed on April 21st without full clearance. Meanwhile, Edgar Cuero and Reese McGuire are manning the plate. The 23-year-old Cuero in his first full big league year sits at a 161 average with a slow start, though Getts views it as a chance to grow his switch hitting. Getts noted Teal had a strong day yesterday and feels good now, so they'll watch this
