ARLINGTON, Texas — The Chicago White Sox are trading first baseman Andrew Vaughn to the Milwaukee Brewers for pitcher Aaron Civale, a source confirmed to the Tribune on Friday morning.
Civale is 1-2 with a 4.91 ERA and 19 strikeouts in five starts for the Brewers this season. The Athletic reported on Thursday that his agent had asked Milwaukee to deal the right-hander rather than use him in a relief role.
Vaughn has had a disappointing 2025 season, hitting .189 with five home runs and 19 RBIs in 48 games. The Sox optioned Vaughn, the No. 3 pick in the 2019 draft, to Triple-A Charlotte on May 23.
Vaughn, 27, has a .248/.303/.407 slash line with 77 home runs and 293 RBIs in 610 career games during five seasons with the Sox.
Civale, 30, is 40-37 with a 4.06 ERA and 596 strikeouts in 122 career starts over seven major-league seasons with Cleveland (2019-2023), Tampa Bay (2023-24) and Milwaukee (2024-25).
Jon Heyman of the New York Post/MLB Network initially reported Civale being dealt to the Sox and ESPN’s Jesse Rogers reported that it would be in exchange for Vaughn.
