Andrew Vaughn Reinstated From Injured List on Monday
The Milwaukee Brewers announced on Monday before the series opener against the division-rival St. Louis Cardinals that they reinstated first baseman Andrew Vaughn (hand) from the 10-day injured list. It's unclear if Vaughn will be right back in the team's starting lineup on Monday at Busch Stadium against Cardinals right-hander Kyle Leahy. The 28-year-old former third overall pick by the Chicago White Sox in 2019 out of Cal appeared in just one game this year (he went 1-for-4 at the plate with an RBI) before landing on the IL with a fractured left hamate bone when he was hit by a pitch on his hand. Vaughn required surgery, but he's now back with the club and should start regularly at first base for the Brew Crew. His return will likely push the left-handed-hitting Jake Bauers to designated hitter and the outfield. The Brewers and fantasy managers are hoping that Vaughn can continue to hit like he did late last year after they picked him up from Chicago, when he went 68-for-221 (.308) with nine home runs and 46 RBI in 64 regular-season games. Vaughn is rostered in only 34% of Yahoo leagues right now.
