Tyler O'Neill Dealing With Illness
42 seconds agoBaltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (illness) is battling an illness and is expected to be sidelined for the next few days. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status but he should be expected to return to the starting lineup sometime next week. Earlier in the offseason, the Orioles signed the 29-year-old to a three-year $49.5 million contract. After battling injuries for several seasons, O'Neill was able to log over 100 games in 2024 for just the second time in his career. Across 113 contests in Boston last summer, O'Neill held a .241/.336/.511 slash line with 18 doubles and 31 home runs. He swiped four bags. He generated a strong .339 xwOBA with an elite 11.2 percent walk rate. However, he struck out at a hefty 33.6 percent rate. Fantasy managers should expect O'Neill to have an everyday role in the starting nine and is a viable target when looking for an outfielder with high-end power.
