2026 Projections
2026 Fantasy Outlook
After being acquired from the Red Sox as the centerpiece of the trade that sent Garrett Crochet to Boston, Teel spent the first two months of the 2025 season knocking around Triple-A pitching before getting the call to the big leagues. The 24-year-old looked at home right away and finished with a wRC+ of 125 while boasting a 12.5 percent walk rate and .375 on-base percentage. Fellow catcher Edgar Quero beat Teel to the majors and also played well, but Teel received priority treatment behind the plate and against right-handed pitching, setting Teel up to be the team's top catcher in 2026. Teel's 25.9 percent strikeout rate was a tad high, and the left-handed hitter had just a .546 OPS in limited chances versus southpaws. That said, while Teel's ceiling from a power perspective might not be super high, he should continue to get on base at a high clip, and he's also a better bet than most catchers to chip in with some stolen bases.
