Chicago White Sox fans have a mixed bag of emotions after the latest trade

The 27-year-old Vaughn entered his fifth season in Major League Baseball and came into this season needing to prove to the White Sox that he was worth a long-term contract and was the first baseman of the future. That didn’t happen, as this season turned out to be the worst in his entire career.

Vaughn played 48 games for the White Sox this season and hit .189/.218/.314 for an OPS and OPS+ of .531 and 49, which led to him getting optioned. Since getting optioned to the Knights, he still hasn’t done well, as he’s hitting .211 with an OPS of .679 in 15 games.

Vaughn getting traded to Milwaukee should benefit him, as he could see playing time there with the Brewers needing more offense. A change of scenery could be what he needs to be able to come out of whatever slump he is in.
