Andrew Vaughn News
After a promising April where Chicago White Sox first baseman Andrew Vaughn hit .255 with three home runs and 20 RBI, he's been in a slump for most of May. Vaughn added 13 walks, giving him a .358 on-base percentage in April, but he's walked only five times this month. With his .213 average and five walks in May, Vaughn has a .264 on-base percentage for the month entering play Thursday night. He'll look to get it going at the plate in a four-game road series against the Detroit Tigers, though Vaughn has just one home run away from Guaranteed Rate Field this season.
Chicago White Sox first baseman/outfielder Andrew Vaughn went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer and a walk in Sunday's 12-9 win over the Tampa Bay Rays. The White Sox were down 9-5 heading into the ninth frame. Chicago rallied back in the ninth by scoring seven runs, capped off by Vaughn's three-run blast. The former first-round pick is off to a slow start in 2023, slashing .255/.358/.434 with three homers, 20 RBI, 12 runs, and a 13:24 BB: K over 123 plate appearances. Vaughn is starting to get hot at the plate, collecting a hit in five straight games with a .333/.417/.667 slash line over his last 24 plate appearances. Fantasy managers should continue to roll with Vaughn while he's wielding a hot bat.
Chicago White Sox first baseman/outfielder Andrew Vaughn (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Houston Astros. The 24-year-old has certainly earned the right to start everyday. On Thursday, Vaughn hit a two-run double in the ninth inning to help the White Sox get the win. Possibly, manager Pedro Grifol just wanted to get Gavin Sheets some reps. Hopefully, Vaughn sitting out doesn't become a routine thing this season.

Chicago White Sox first baseman/outfielder Andrew Vaughn posted respectable totals in his second big league season. The No. 3 pick overall in the 2019 MLB Draft slashed .271/.321/.429 with 17 home runs, 76 RBI, and 60 runs across 555 plate appearances in 2022. He continues to make strides offensively and saw his hard-hit percentage increase from 47.3% in 2021 to 48.6%, while his wOBA went up from .306 to .327 in 2022. Vaughn is expected to be Chicago's everyday first baseman now that Jose Abreu is with the Astros. The 24-year-old will move to his natural position at first base and should hit in the heart of the order. Look for Vaughn to continue to improve offensively; his hard-hit percentage is in the 90th percentile, and he has hit 32 homers in his first two big league seasons. ATC projections are on board with slight improvement for Vaughn and are projecting the young slugger to slash .263/.325/.426 with 20 homers, 72 RBI, 67 runs, and a 115 wRC+ over 586 plate appearances in 2023. With dual eligibility at first base and outfielder, Vaughn should produce solid numbers and is a worthy pick at his current NFBC ADP of 141.4.
