"It appears that rookies Colson Montgomery and Chase Meidroth have secured their spots as middle infielders, with an outside chance that Montgomery moves to third base down the line. Catchers Kyle Teel and Edgar Quero have secured their places as the two primary catchers for the White Sox, but it could turn into a rotation of three with Korey Lee getting recalled from Triple-A."
"The outfield has taken shape for the most part, and the current outfield alignment of Andrew Benintendi, Luis Robert Jr., and Mike Tauchman will likely be the same coming into 2026. Robert Jr. is a potential free agent after this season, but the White Sox are expected to pick up his $20 million club option. Tauchman will be in the final year of arbitration before becoming a free agent."
Most positional competitions have been settled, leaving only one or two spots unresolved as the season ends. Colson Montgomery and Chase Meidroth have secured middle infield roles, with Montgomery possibly moving to third base later. Kyle Teel and Edgar Quero have become the primary catchers, with Korey Lee a potential third option after a Triple-A recall. The outfield of Andrew Benintendi, Luis Robert Jr., and Mike Tauchman is likely to carry into 2026, with the club expected to pick up Robert’s $20 million option and tender Tauchman through arbitration. First base remains the main opening; Miguel Vargas and Lenyn Sosa have seen time there.
