Vaughn went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's 7-3 loss to the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

Vaughn proved that his face contusion wasn't an issue after reaching base three times Saturday, including a solo home run off Framber Valdez in the seventh inning. The rookie hasn't been a very consistent hitter this season batting .236, but his role has increased due to multiple injuries to teammates. He will likely get better with experience as he has shown the ability to get on base multiple times in three of his last five games.

Vaughn (face) will bat seventh and play left field Saturday against the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

Vaughn exited Friday's game with a facial contusion after getting hit by a throw while running the bases. The injury evidently wasn't a particularly serious one, as he won't wind up missing a single contest.

Vaughn left Friday's game against the Astros with a facial contusion.

EDGE Analysis

Vaughn was hit in the face by a throw while running out a double in the sixth inning Friday, and he was removed from the game in the bottom of the eighth inning. He's currently considered day-to-day, but Jake Lamb could see increased at-bats if the 23-year-old is forced to miss additional time.

Vaughn went 3-for-5 with a double, an RBI and three runs scored in Wednesday's 8-7 win over the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

It was Vaughn's second three-hit showing of 2021, and his first multi-hit game since May 27. Injuries in the White Sox's lineup, specifically to Eloy Jimenez (pectoral), have thrust Vaughn into a more substantial role than expected in 2021 and he's struggled with a .231 average, but performances like Wednesday's can be invaluable to the 23-year-old's confidence going forward.

Vaughn is not in the starting lineup Sunday against the Tigers, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

With manager Tony La Russa wanting to get Brian Goodwin another start after he homered and doubled in his team debut Saturday, Vaughn will sit for the second straight day. The rookie is hitting just .226/.308/.396 across 182 plate appearances this season, so it wouldn't be surprising is he sees less consistent playing time in the coming weeks.

Vaughn is not in Saturday's lineup against the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

He is hitting .200 with one home run in 25 June at-bats. Jake Lamb will start in left field and bat seventh.

Vaughn started at first base for the resting Jose Abreu and went 1-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 3-0 win over Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

Vaughn started at first base for the fifth time this season. Leading up to the regular season, he was expected to be the primary designated hitter, but an injury to Eloy Jimenez (pectoral) created a need in left field, which is where the bulk of his playing time has come and that should continue to be the case. A new wrinkle, however, is that Adam Engel was finally activated off the injured list Sunday, which could cause some playing time adjustments in the outfield, Vaughn, Engel, Leury Garcia and Billy Hamilton (oblique) all are in need of at-bats.

Vaughn went 1-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Vaughn was activated from the COVID-19 protocols list and started in left field against left-hander Tarik Skubal. Jake Lamb has been given a steady stream of at-bats recently as the left fielder against righties and has hit well (.393 last 10 games). Lamb's batting surge could limit Vaughn's usage to left-handers only.

Vaughn was reinstated from the COVID-19 injured list and is starting Saturday's game against the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Vaughn had been on the COVID-19 IL since Thursday as a precautionary measure, but he was able to take batting practice Friday. He'll start in left field and bat sixth Saturday.

Vaughn (undisclosed) was seen taking batting practice prior to Friday's game against the Tigers, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Vaughn is currently on the COVID-19 injured list, but manager Tony La Russa said earlier Friday that the rookie could return as soon as Saturday. Given his participation in Friday's batting practice, a Saturday return now appears even more likely.
