Andrew Vaughn is under pressure as the Chicago White Sox maintain faith in the struggling first baseman. Despite batting a low .161 in April and having only two extra-base hits in his last 11 games, the team continues to support him, attributing part of his woes to bad luck. General manager Chris Getz acknowledged the need for mechanical adjustments while also keeping an eye on the impressive performance of Tim Elko in Triple-A, who boasts a .354 average with nine homers.

The White Sox face a tough season with injuries impacting their roster, including key players like Korey Lee and outfielders Mike Tauchman and Austin Slater. The team’s 7-21 record raises concerns, especially after a woeful 2024 season. Getz is optimistic about the club's farm system but noted that top prospect Colson Montgomery is struggling, batting just .149. The organization plans to provide him extra coaching.
