INSIGHT

Andrew Vaughn Became A Late-Round Corner Value

  • Andrew Vaughn's move to Milwaukee unlocked a clear performance boost and lineup fit.
  • In 64 games with the Brewers he hit .308/.375/.493 with nine homers and projects as a 270/25/90 corner option at late ADP outside the top 200.
ADVICE

Draft Andrew Vaughn Aggressively When Mispriced

  • Target Vaughn proactively in drafts when his ADP is outside the top 200, especially in non-Yahoo rooms.
  • Scott recommends drafting him in the 160–190 range in casual leagues to secure middle-of-lineup production.
INSIGHT

Account For Platoon Risk When Valuing Lefty Hitters

  • Platoon and positional depth shape draft willingness; left-handed hitters like Vaughn carry platoon concerns but can still be prioritized for everyday roles.
  • Scott admits some drafters avoid platoon risk, so value depends on your league preferences.
