Tyler O'Neill To Begin Rehab Assignment Early Next Week
2 years agoSt. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (hamstring) is likely to begin a rehab assignment either on Monday or Tuesday of next week, according to Cardinals beat writer Jeff Jones. O'Neill has been sidelined for nearly two weeks due to a left hamstring strain. While the 27-year-old has had an underwhelming year overall, he was heating up prior to the injury. He had a .354/.385/.521 slash line over the 13 games he played in June. With his absence, it's been easier for the Cardinals to work rookies Juan Yepez and Brendan Donovan into the lineup each day. Once O'Neill returns, multiple Cardinals -- including Yepez and Donovan -- could see their playing time take a hit.
