Andrew Vaughn Back In The Lineup Monday
10 months agoChicago White Sox first baseman Andrew Vaughn is back in the starting lineup Monday versus New York Yankees ace Gerrit Cole. The 25-year-old didn't start Sunday's series finale against the Cleveland Guardians but entered the game as a pinch-hitter, going 1-for-2 with a run scored and a strikeout as part of his club's 5-3 victory. Vaughn, in the midst of his third big-league campaign, is hitting .250 with 14 homers and a .747 OPS across 429 trips to the plate. While he's offered more power this season, his overall work at the plate has resulted in a small step back from his production as a sophomore in 2022, as evidenced by his 105 wRC+ this season versus a 113 mark from a season ago.
