Vaughn can play a passable LF and is at least decent at 1B. Sheets can do neither. I'm selling high on Sheets before any value evaporates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be the only one on this board but I don't give a shit of Sheets stays or goes. Vaughn IMO is going to be a top tier hitter for a long long time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can't afford to wait for him to develop vs RHP. Sheets is fine at 1B/DH. Edited March 10, 2022 by Jack Parkman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The meal money is pretty inconsequential. Its around 200,000. I think the max they go is around 240. They will leave a little room for trade deadline acquisitions.

A LH RF gives you what Sheets does w/o clogging DH or putting a bad 1B in RF. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will offer a strong bet that the White Sox will stay under the tax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main differences between Vaughn and Sheets are age and draft position. If Vaughn was the 2nd rounder instead of the 3rd overall pick, how would your opinion change?

Andrew Vaughn would have gone 1-1 if he could play anywhere else but 1st base because of his bat. Sheets was based on needing a fair amount of work to hit his power ceiling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the 3rd overall pick because he was as good of a college bat as there was that year and spent more than one season demolishing college pitching. How exactly you fit that into a 2nd round pick I'm not sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changes my opinion all of zero. Vaughn when healthy last summer showed a ton of potential at the plate. Sheets was given favorable matchups and had a few nice dingers. They are not on the same level.

I see the window as 2022-2024 so I couldn't really care less about what Vaughn might do in 2026. The Sox can't afford to wait on Vaughn to develop. They're better off using him as a chip for someone like Ketel Marte. Don't give him away, by all means, and I do realize his potential is greater than Sheets. But I think his value to the Sox competitive window is as a trade piece. Edited March 10, 2022 by Jack Parkman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
