Tending to hip pointer The White Sox announced Monday that Vaughn is dealing with a right hip pointer and is expected to return to game action in one or two weeks. Impact Vaughn had to be carted off the field after making a diving catch in Sunday's Cactus League game against the Dodgers, but he seems to have escaped with nothing worse than a bruise. A trip to the injured list is still possible, as Opening Day falls right in the middle of his given timeline. Even if he progresses quickly and hits the early end of that range, it's possible the White Sox choose to give him some rehab games to finish his spring preparation. Regardless, Vaughn shouldn't need much time before joining the big-league lineup, assuming he experiences no further setbacks in his recovery from the injury.
