The Milwaukee Brewers have traded Aaron Civale to the Chicago White Sox at his request, following his shift to the bullpen due to Jacob Misiorowski's insertion into the rotation. In exchange, they received Andrew Vaughn, currently assigned to Triple-A Nashville. The Brewers are considering further trades, particularly if Vaughn proves himself as a reliable first baseman, potentially affecting veteran Rhys Hoskins' future on the team. Despite these changes, the Brewers remain second in the NL Central with a 39-34 record, suggesting they could hold their roster if performance stabilizes.
Andrew Vaughn, coming to the Brewers in the Aaron Civale trade, is a 1B and DH who hits right-handed and has 77 homers in 4 1/2 seasons in the big leagues - but is slashing .189/.218/.314 in 48 games for the White Sox this season. He also has played the outfield.
If the Brewers become convinced that newly acquired Andrew Vaughn could return to being an everyday first baseman, veteran Rhys Hoskins could be a valuable chip at the trade deadline.
