The 2025 White Sox featured the major league debut of eleven different players. Some, like Colson Montgomery, Kyle Teel, and Edgar Quero were high draft picks or top prospects with long-awaited debuts. Some debuts were far more under-the-radar. 27 year-old reliever Caleb Freeman made his big league debut on May 5th against the Kansas City Royals following an improbable path to the big leagues. His big league stint didn’t last long, however, and a recent roster decision may affect his future in Chicago.
Freeman, drafted in the 15th round in 2019, became just the third player from his draft round to make the big leagues.
