The Red Sox promoted Teel from Double-A Portland to Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports. Teel had produced a .294 average with 11 home runs, 59 RBI, 64 runs scored and nine stolen bases over 320 at-bats in 83 games with Portland. He will look to keep it up at the Triple-A level, where he'll also be joined by shortstop Marcelo Mayer and outfielder Roman Anthony.

Teel has a .262/.367/.408 slash line with three home runs, one steal and a 27.5 percent strikeout rate in 27 games for Double-A Portland. He has been 26 percent better than the average Eastern League hitter, and it's worth noting that the park factors in Portland and the Eastern League in general favor pitchers over hitters. Teel's 21.7 percent hard-hit rate is subpar, and he's hitting more balls to the opposite field (40 percent) than to the pull side (38.6 percent), so Teel remains a hit-over-power prospect.
