Minor league shortstop Caleb Bonemer had a memorable first season as a professional baseball player.
Bonemer, drafted by the Chicago White Sox in the second round of the 2024 MLB Draft, started the 2025 season with the Kannapolis Cannon Ballers for his first taste of affiliated baseball.
While he reached High-A Winston-Salem by the season’s end, Bonemer spent a majority of the season in Kannapolis.
In 96 games at Low-A, Bonemer hit .281 with a .400 on-base percentage, .859 OPS, 10 home runs, and 27 stolen bases. He was even better after his promotion.
