White Sox's Edgar Quero: Three-hit effort in win
Rotowire
Quero went 3-for-5 with a double and two runs scored in Thursday's 11-8 win over the Twins.
Quero batted leadoff for the first time in his career -- over 93 games this season, he's batted out of every spot in the order. He's most frequently featured third, fourth or sixth in the lineup, but he's been hitting well lately, going 23-for-65 (.354) over his last 20 games. The switch hitter is up to a .289/.351/.395 slash line with five home runs, 36 RBI, 28 runs scored, 17 doubles and no stolen bases across 333 plate appearances. Quero hasn't provided much power and has lackluster speed -- ranking in the fifth percentile -- so he doesn't seem like a logical fit for the leadoff spot in the long run despite a promising showing at getting on base.

White Sox's Edgar Quero: Stays hot with solo homer
Rotowire
Quero went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a 4-3 win over the Twins on Wednesday.
Quero left the yard for the fifth time this season, and it was his first homer since Aug. 12 versus Detroit. The switch-hitting backstop has a decent .737 OPS during his rookie year, and he's fared even better over his last 18 games. During that span, Quero is batting a torrid .351 with two big flies, two doubles, 10 RBI and eight runs scored across his last 57 at-bats.

Rotowire
Quero went 3-for-5 with a home run, three RBI and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 9-6 win over the Tigers.
The rookie launched a solo shot off Codi Heuer in the seventh inning, his fourth of the year, and then added a two-run single an inning later to push Chicago's lead to six. It was his third multi-hit effort in his last eight games and his second game this season with at least three RBI. The 22-year-old is now slashing .275/.342/.381 with 29 RBI and 20 runs scored through 75 contests.

White Sox's Edgar Quero: Breaks slump
Rotowire
Quero went 3-for-3 with a walk and an RBI on Wednesday against the Dodgers.
Quero's playing time has started to slip, as he's gone from playing every other day to once every three days since late June. That coincides with a slump at the plate, as he entered Wednesday's game having gone just 1-for-18 across his last seven games. He managed to turn in a productive performance Wednesday, with his RBI coming on a single in the third inning.

White Sox's Edgar Quero: Splitting catcher reps with Lee
Rotowire
Quero is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Tigers.
Quero has been alternating starts at catcher with Korey Lee since the latter returned from the injured list last week, although Quero received an additional start at designated hitter during that stretch. Still, the rookie catcher looks as though he may play a bit less with Lee around than he did when Matt Thaiss was still with the White Sox. Quero is slashing only .188/.263/.232 over his last 21 games and is still looking for his first major-league home run.

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.
