Tyler O'Neill Doubles Twice And Steals A Base On Wednesday
4 years agoSt. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill doubled twice and stole a base in Wednesday's 7-4 series finale win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. O'Neill ended up 3-for-4 with the two doubles and a single, scoring three runs and driving in one. The steal was his sixth of the season and the RBI brought his total up to 36. He's batting .272 with an .880 OPS and is having a very impressive season so far. He should continue to provide value to his fantasy managers, especially if he continues to hit in the middle of the Cardinals batting order.

Tyler O'Neill Homers In Sixth Straight Opening Day
2 days agoBaltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill probably wishes that everyday was Opening Day. On Thursday, O'Neill homered for a record sixth consecutive Opening Day. The right-handed slugger joined the O's this offseason and is already off to a bang. He went 3-for-3 at the plate with a three-run blast and two walks in the blowout win over the Toronto Blue Jays. The O's added O'Neill this offseason in hopes that he could be a reliable source of power in the middle of the lineup. So far, O'Neill is doing a great job after a 31-homer season in 2024. His power numbers alone make him worth rostering in most fantasy formats.

Tyler O'Neill Cleared To Play On Sunday
3 weeks agoBaltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (ribs) returned to the starting nine on Sunday afternoon. O'Neill was batting cleanup and covered left field. The 29-year-old was kept out of action over the past few days due to a minor rib injury. However, seeing him return to the lineup quickly suggests the injury was not serious. Earlier in the offseason, O'Neill inked a three-year $49.5 million contract with the Orioles. Last season, O'Neill enjoyed a strong bounce-back campaign in Boston, launching 31 home runs with 18 home runs. Across 113 contests, O'Neill held a .241/.336/.511 slash line and added 61 RBI. Under the hood, he generated an elite 17.3 percent barrel rate with a 48.8 percent hard-hit rate. Fantasy managers should expect the 29-year-old to have an everyday role in left field and is a great target late in drafts when looking for power.

Tyler O'Neill Targeting Sunday Return
3 weeks agoBaltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (ribs) is hoping to return to the starting lineup on Sunday. O'Neill is expected to go through a workout on Saturday and is "feeling much better." O'Neill was scratched on Thursday due to left rib cage soreness but appears to be nearing a return. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status in case he faces a setback prior to Sunday's contest. Earlier in the offseason, the Orioles signed O'Neill to a three-year $49.5 million contract. Last season, the 29-year-old enjoyed a productive season in Boston as he launched 31 long balls with a .241/.336/.511 slash line with 18 doubles and four stolen bases. He generated an elite 48.8 percent hard-hit rate with a strong .480 xSLG. When healthy, fantasy managers should expect O'Neill to have an everyday role in the Baltimore left field.

Tyler O'Neill Scratched With Rib-Cage Soreness
3 weeks agoBaltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (rib cage) was scratched from Thursday night's Grapefruit League contest against the Pittsburgh Pirates due to left rib-cage soreness. The Orioles are saying he was removed from the lineup as a precaution. It doesn't appear to be anything to really worry about, but O'Neill has missed plenty of game action this week already due to an illness. With the 29-year-old out again on Thursday, Colton Cowser will play left field and bat cleanup. O'Neill hit 31 homers in his one and only season with the Boston Red Sox a year ago, but it also came with a 33.6 percent strikeout rate. However, he also walked at a strong clip of 11.6% percent. Injuries are part of the deal if you have O'Neill rostered, as he was on the injured list three different times in 2024. He does most of his damage against lefties but should be in the lineup regularly in Baltimore in 2025. O'Neill is ranked just inside the top-50 outfielders at RotoBaller.
