I am also beginning to wonder if the Sox are hiding something with Andrew Vaughn as his PT has gone way down in the last week, despite his being on the hottest hitters on the team.

What could they be hiding? An injury? Doesn't add up. I would think TLR's line of thinking is, he has never had this long of a season before so getting him more and more days off will hopefully help him from hitting a wall come end of September into October 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet Vaughn is either DHing or sitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaughn going to DH or the bench and Goodwin playing RF seems so much like exactly what I'd expect from LaRussa that I don't feel suspicious at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 I think they are trying to protect Vaughn as he has never played anywhere close to this number of games in season, never played above A ball and is being told to learn a couple of different positions. The fact he is still sane is amazing. Moncada hitting 5th is something as there are real hitters in this lineup now. Why is he not after Robert and against RHP after Goodwin.

Fangraphs has Goodwin as a better RF than Vaughn, so I don't know why it's a problem that he's DHing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My eye test says AV is at least, as good as Goodwin in RF, and that says a lot, considering he has logged single digit games there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
