EDGE Analysis

Vaughn dealt with minor back tightness toward the end of spring training and the White Sox don't want to push him too hard out of the gate.

Vaughn is not in the White Sox starting lineup Friday against the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

Gavin Sheets, a left-handed hitter, will start at first base and bat sixth against Houston right-hander Cristian Javier. The right-handed-hitting Vaughn will ride the pine, with Eloy Jimenez serving as the DH and cleanup man. Vaughn should be Chicago's primary first baseman throughout the 2023 season, but he might sit here and there versus tougher righties.
