Brewers Call up Andrew Vaughn as They Send Rhys Hoskins to the 10-Day Injured List
MILWAUKEE COUNTY, WISCONSIN, JUL 7 – Andrew Vaughn, acquired in a June 13 trade, replaces Rhys Hoskins who faces a six-week absence with a thumb sprain; Vaughn hit a three-run homer in his Brewers debut.
- In early July, the Milwaukee Brewers promoted former White Sox first-round pick Andrew Vaughn to their major league roster after placing Rhys Hoskins on the 10-day injured list with a sprained thumb.
- On June 13, the White Sox traded Vaughn to Milwaukee for Civale, after his slump with a.189/.218/.314 line in 48 games, following Civale's request for a move.
- Vaughn hit.259/.338 with 3 homers and 16 RBIs in 16 games at Triple-A Nashville, providing a right-handed first base option alongside Jake Bauers.
- Vaughn’s promotion provides a right-handed first baseman option as Hoskins faces weeks out, with manager Pat Murphy estimating a multi-week recovery.
- As Vaughn joins the Brewers, he sees a second chance to revive his career, with hopes high he can regain the form that made him a top prospect, according to sport reporter Francys Romero.
