White Sox's Edgar Quero: Impressive start to career
Rotowire
Quero went 2-for-3 with an RBI, two walks and two runs scored Saturday against the Athletics.
Quero has performed well since being recalled for his big-league debut April 17, with Saturday marking his third multi-hit effort in nine starts. He's also struck out at just a 5.9 percent clip, as opposed to a 15.2 percent walk rate. While he won't remain this successful, Quero certainly doesn't look overmatched in the majors.

White Sox's Edgar Quero: Up to cleanup spot versus righty
Rotowire
Quero will start at catcher and bat cleanup in Monday's game versus the Red Sox.
Quero split starts with Matt Thaiss in the first four games after his promotion, with both of the switch-hitting rookie's starts coming against left-handers. However, he is in there versus righty Walker Buehler in Monday's series finale and has also been elevated to the cleanup spot. Quero is 4-for-11 with two doubles and two RBI in his first 12 plate appearances.

White Sox's Edgar Quero: Success in small sample
Rotowire
Quero went 2-for-4 with a double Saturday against the Red Sox.
Quero has appeared in all three games since being recalled from Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday, two of which were starts. He already has a pair of doubles with three total hits across nine at-bats while striking out only once. Early returns have been positive, and the White Sox have little reason not to give him as much playing time as he can handle with only Matt Thaiss competing for reps behind the plate.

White Sox's Edgar Quero: Promoted, batting seventh in debut
Rotowire
The White Sox selected Quero's contract from Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday.
Quero earned the promotion after slashing .333/.444/.412 with one home run over his first 63 plate appearances at Charlotte this season. The 22-year-old will presumably take over as Chicago's primary backstop and could be worthy of a pickup in fantasy leagues that start two catchers. Quero will start behind the dish and bat seventh Thursday against the Athletics in his major-league debut.

White Sox's Edgar Quero: Bound for big leagues
Rotowire
The White Sox plan to promote Quero from Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.
One of the top prospects in the White Sox's farm system, Quero has slashed .333/.444/.412 with one home run, four RBI and nine runs scored across 63 plate appearances in Triple-A this season. The 22-year-old backstop will now get his first taste of the big leagues with Chicago, where he could get the chance to play on a near-everyday basis between catcher and designated hitter.

White Sox's Edgar Quero: Not seeing any action this spring
Rotowire
Quero has yet to make a start for the White Sox this spring.
Quero came into camp seemingly with a shot to emerge with a spot on the Opening Day roster, but his lack of usage suggests that's not going to happen. The 21-year-old has appeared in eight Cactus League games off the bench this spring, going 4-for-14 with a 2:1 K:BB. Quero appears likely to open the season alongside fellow catching prospect Kyle Teel at Triple-A Charlotte, where the duo would split playing time.

White Sox's Edgar Quero: Sent to ChiSox
Rotowire
The White Sox acquired 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
Rotowire
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.
