White Sox's Edgar Quero: Added to taxi squad
The Chicago White Sox added Edgar Quero to their taxi squad Sunday, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.The 21-year-old catcher could make his major-league debut with the White Sox during the last week of the regular season. Quero has been with the organization since July of 2023, when he was traded by the Angels along with left-hander Ky Bush in exchange for Lucas Giolito and Reynaldo Lopez. Quero began 2024 with Double-A Birmingham, but he was promoted to Triple-A Charlotte in July. He missed some time due to a back injury, but across his 25 outings with Charlotte, he slashed .300/.390/.478 with four home runs and 17 RBI across 105 plate appearances.

White Sox's Edgar Quero: Returning to action in Triple-A
Triple-A Charlotte activated Edgar Quero (back) from the 7-day injured list Thursday, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.Quero was placed on the 7-day injured list in late August after injuring his back, but he's healthy for the final week-plus of the season. The 21-year-old appeared to have a chance of making his MLB debut with the Chicago White Sox down the stretch prior to the injury, but that's increasingly unlikely with just nine big-league games left on the schedule.

White Sox's Edgar Quero: Nursing back injury
Edgar Quero has been on the 7-day injured list since Aug. 17 due to a back injury, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.The club has yet to reveal a timetable for Quero's return, and Paul Janish, Director of Player Development, stated Monday that the backstop will likely remain out a bit longer, per Fegan. "At this juncture of the season, we just need to make sure that he's completely healthy," said Janish. Quero was being considered for a September promotion prior to suffering the injury, and his current placement on the IL could prevent him from making his big-league debut if he's not activated in the near future.

White Sox's Edgar Quero: Jumps to Triple-A Charlotte
Edgar Quero was promoted to Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday, MLB.com reports.Quero maintained an .823 OPS with 12 home runs and 53 RBI across 292 plate appearances with Double-A Birmingham. It would be a surprise to see him reach the majors in 2024, though a debut early in 2025 is certainly realistic.

White Sox's Edgar Quero: Sent to ChiSox
The Chicago White Sox acquired Edgar Quero along with left-hander Ky Bush from the Angels on Wednesday in exchange for right-handers Lucas Giolito and Reynaldo Lopez, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.After putting up a .970 OPS in Single-A in 2022, Quero was pushed to Double-A to begin 2023 and is slashing .245/.385/.332 with 35 RBI across 317 plate appearances. The 20-year-old backstop will likely remain in Double-A as he transitions to his new organization, though he remains on his way to contribute in the majors within a few years.

Angels' Edgar Quero: Treading water at Double-A
Edgar Quero has been a league-average hitter (100 wRC+) while slashing .240/.378/.322 with two home runs in 63 games for Double-A Rocket City.Quero has displayed stellar plate skills (16.5 BB%, 17.5 K%) as the third-youngest qualified hitter at Double-A, but he hasn't hit for much impact (0.82 ISO, 23.0 percent hard-contact rate). He was pushed very aggressively over High-A this season, so Quero's performance thus far should not be seen as a disappointment.

Angels' Edgar Quero: Pushed aggressively
Edgar Quero is set to open the season with Double-A Rocket City, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.This is surprising, even for the aggressive Los Angeles Angels, as Quero, who turns 20 this week, has never played above Single-A and his defense behind the plate is widely panned by scouts. Granted, Rocket City is the team's preferred developmental hub over Tri-City (too pitcher-friendly) and Salt Lake (too hitter-friendly). If Quero handles the aggressive assignment offensively, he could possibly be fast-tracked as a first baseman.

Angels' Edgar Quero: Reassigned to minor-league camp
Edgar Quero was reassigned to minor-league camp by the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday.Quero is one of the organization's better prospects but won't turn 20 until next month and needs more development time. He collected a .965 OPS with 17 homers and 12 steals at Low-A Inland Empire in 2022 and will probably move up to High-A Tri-City to start 2023.

Angels' Edgar Quero: Breakout season in Single-A
Edgar Quero wrapped the 2022 regular season at High-A Inland Empire with a .312/.435/.530 batting line, 17 homers and 12 steals through 111 games.There are few -- if any -- flaws to be found in Quero's stat line this season. He led the 66ers in average, homers, RBI (75) and runs (86), and he did so while putting up a terrific 73:91 BB:K. To highlight just how special this season was for the 19-year-old Quero, when J.T. Realmuto was his age, he hit .175 in rookie ball. Switch-hitting catchers with both power and speed -- not to mention the polish to put up a .965 OPS in full-season ball at 19 -- pretty much don't exist, so while Quero has gotten shockingly little hype in dynasty circles thus far, he won't fly under the radar for long. Of course, he's still several years removed from the big leagues.
