Tyler O'Neill Could Return Next Week
12 months agoSt. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (back) has restarted a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Memphis and is set to play seven innings in the field on Friday before serving as the designated hitter on Saturday. He will play again on Sunday and could be able to return from the injured list as early as next week. O'Neill has hit just .228 (21-for-92) with two home runs, four doubles, six RBI and 12 runs scored in 29 games due to injury this year for the Cardinals, but he figures to see regular playing time in St. Louis' outfield when he does finally make it back. The 28-year-old has been a huge disappointment the last two years, but his power/speed combination remains intriguing. O'Neill is rostered in only 43 percent of Yahoo leagues right now.
