21-Year-Old CatcherC
Chicago White Sox AAA
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Quero likely would have made his big-league debut late last season had a mid-August back injury not cost him most of the final month-plus. He made a mechanical adjustment early in the season and slashed .333/.410/.527 with nine home runs, a 15.7 percent strikeout rate and a 9.6 percent walk rate in his final 56 games split between Double-A and Triple-A. That would be a major development for any prospect, but particularly for a 21-year-old switch-hitting catcher in the upper levels of the minors. He's the same age as the college catchers from last year's draft class, yet he'll likely be the Opening Day starter behind the dish, as he'll be eligible to net the White Sox a Prospect Promotion Incentive pick and he doesn't have anything left to prove at Triple-A. Quero's top competition for playing time, Korey Lee, has been worth negative fWAR in all three MLB seasons, so Quero could finish top 20 in plate appearances among catchers despite the fact he's a rookie with no big-league experience.
