Tyler O'Neill Should Return On Monday
Tyler O'Neill (illness) is expected to be back in the lineup on Monday, according to manager Brandon Hyde. The right-handed slugger is currently considered day-to-day with a minor illness. It's not shocking to see the O's taking the safe approach and giving O'Neill some rest this early in camp. O'Neill signed a three-year deal with the O's in the offseason. He figures to slide right into the middle of the lineup and should benefit from playing half his games in a hitter-friendly ballpark.

Tyler O'Neill Scratched With Shoulder Discomfort
Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) was scratched from Friday's starting lineup against the Washington Nationals due to left-shoulder discomfort. O'Neill first felt it in the batting cage a few days ago, but it was especially sore on Friday. Manager Brandon Hyde said that O'Neill is being considered day-to-day. With the 29-year-old sitting out, Ramon Laureano got the start in left field for the O's and was hitting in the cleanup spot against Nationals left-hander MacKenzie Gore. While it doesn't sound like a serious injury, it's not great news for a player that was just activated from the injured list last Friday after a two-week absence due to neck inflammation. O'Neill has a nice power/speed combination, but he has trouble staying healthy and is hitting just .188 (15-for-80) with two homers, 10 RBI, nine runs and two steals in his first 24 games as an Oriole in 2025.

Tyler O'Neill Resting On Saturday
Tyler O'Neill is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. O'Neill was activated off the injured list on Friday after missing time due to a neck injury. He went 1-for-3 in that game, but will sit this one out for rest purposes. In his absence, Heston Kjerstad and Ryan O'Hearn will cover the corner outfield spots against right-hander Jack Kochanowicz on Saturday. Fantasy managers should expect O'Neill to be back in the lineup on Sunday.

Tyler O'Neill Returns From 10-Day Injured List
Tyler O'Neill (neck) from the 10-day injured list prior to Friday's contest against the Los Angeles Angels. In a corresponding move, the Orioles have optioned third baseman Coby Mayo to Triple-A Norfolk. O'Neill is also in the starting nine this evening. He will bat sixth and cover right field. Before his injury, O'Neill held a modest .215/.284/.385 slash line with three doubles, one triple, and two home runs across his first 19 games of the campaign. He has tallied 10 RBI and scored eight runs. Under the hood, O'Neill has generated an impressive 17.4% barrel rate but has held a high 28.4% strikeout rate, which lowers his value in points leagues. This evening, he has a favorable matchup against Angels right-hander Kyle Hendricks, who enters this game with a 5.28 ERA.

Orioles Hope Tyler O'Neill Joins The Team This Weekend
Tyler O'Neill (neck) will rejoin the team this weekend in Anaheim for a series against the Los Angeles Angels and make his return from the 10-day injured list. In his first minor-league rehab game with Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday, O'Neill went 1-for-3 at the plate as the designated hitter. The 29-year-old oft-injured outfielder has been away from the Orioles since late April due to neck soreness, but he may only need one or two more rehab games in the minors before returning to big-league action for Baltimore. Even though the Canadian native was hitting just .215 (14-for-65) with two homers, 10 RBI and eight runs scored before his injury, he should return to being a lineup regular for the O's when he's activated. Ramon Laureano will likely be the biggest loser in terms of playing time when O'Neill is back.
