Tyler O'Neill Homers Sunday

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill hit his seventh home run of the season Sunday, knocking a solo shot off Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Aaron Ashby as part of a 2-for-4 day at the plate. He scored two runs in the game. O'Neill has struggled all season, and he's been just as bad lately, though this performance inches him closer to double digits in both homers and steals, with seven and eight respectively. This isn't much consolation to fantasy managers who had high expectations after his 34 homers and 15 steals in 2021.

Tyler O'Neill Returns To The Lineup Wednesday

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (leg) is back in left field and is hitting fifth on Wednesday against Chicago Cubs left-hander Justin Steele. O'Neill will return to action after missing the last two games due to a leg cramp. Since the All-Star break, he's really struggled at the dish, going 5-for-26 (.192) with a homer, five RBI, six runs scored and eight strikeouts in 30 plate appearances over seven games. The 27-year-old has been a big disappointment for fantasy managers this year after he hit .286 with a .912 OPS, 34 home runs, 80 RBI and 15 steals in 138 games in 2021. This year, O'Neill is slashing .233/.298/.351 with five long balls, 33 RBI, 29 runs scored and eight stolen bases in 55 games played.

Tyler O'Neill Remains Out Of The Lineup Against The Cubs

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (leg) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Chicago Cubs. He left Saturday's game early with leg cramps and has been absent from the lineup since. The 27-year-old remains day-to-day. O'Neill is slashing .233/.298/.351 with five home runs, 33 RBI, 29 runs scored, and eight stolen bases in 55 games. Lars Nootbaar is batting sixth and will handle right field duties while O'Neill is sidelined. Nootbaar has collected a hit in four of his last five games and can be used as a streamer in deep-league formats while swinging a hot bat.

Tyler O'Neill Not Starting Against Nationals

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (leg) is not in the starting lineup on Sunday against the Washington Nationals. O'Neill left Saturday's game early with leg cramps, which is why he's out of the lineup for the series finale. For now, fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day. Injuries have limited the 27-year-old to just 55 games, and he's hitting .233/.298/.351 with five home runs, 33 RBI, 29 runs scored and eight stolen bases in 228 plate appearances. Corey Dickerson will get the start in left field and will bat eighth on Sunday against Nationals right-hander Josiah Gray. The veteran Dickerson is hitting only .209 (27-for-129) on the season with three home runs and 16 RBI, so he'll be a low-upside DFS option.

Tyler O'Neill Leaves With Leg Cramps

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill left Saturday's contest early with leg cramps after going 2-for-2 in the game. Corey Dickerson came on to relieve him for his at-bat in the fifth inning, and he should be considered day-to-day for now. It's been a frustrating year for O'Neill who has played just 54 games while batting .225 with five homers and eight steals after a breakout 2021 campaign. The initial reaction is that this seems like a minor ailment, but don't be surprised if he were to sit out Sunday's finale with a scheduled off-day on Monday. Stay tuned for news from the club prior to Sunday afternoon's tilt with Washington.

Tyler O'Neill Activated From 10-Day Injured List

The St. Louis Cardinals have activated outfielder Tyler O'Neill (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list. Fellow outfielder Lars Nootbaar was optioned to Triple-A Memphis in a corresponding move. O'Neill missed nearly a month due to a left hamstring strain. Though he's had a disappointing season overall at the plate, he was heating up before the injury, slashing .354/.385/.521 in June. O'Neill will return to an everyday role in all likelihood, which means that we could see reduced playing time for Corey Dickerson, Juan Yepez or Dylan Carlson. Dickerson seems like the most likely player to lose out on starts with O'Neill back.

Tyler O'Neill Has Left Wrist Contusion

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill will not be activated for Friday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. O'Neill seemed to be on track for a Friday return but was hit by a pitch Wednesday during his rehab assignment and has a left wrist contusion. Fortunately, the wrist isn't fractured, and it doesn't sound like this will set his timeline back much. The 27-year-old five-category contributor had been heating up before his injury, with a .354/.385/.521 slash line in June to go along with two homers and three steals. He will be re-evaluated over the weekend and an update on his timeline should come soon after.

Tyler O'Neill To Begin Rehab Assignment Early Next Week

St. 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.

Tyler O'Neill Placed On Injured List With Hamstring Strain

The St. Louis Cardinals placed outfielder Tyler O'Neill (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain on Monday. Fellow outfielder Lars Nootbaar was recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move. O'Neill suffered the injury on Sunday while he was running the base paths. Juan Yepez could stand to benefit most from O'Neill's absence over the next week and a half, though Nootbaar is sure to get some starts here and there as well. O'Neill's injury comes at a rough time as he'd been really heating up lately with a .354/.385/.521 slash line in June.

Tyler O'Neill Removed In Ninth Inning

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (hamstring) was removed during the ninth inning of Sunday's game against the Boston Red Sox. The young outfielder was pulled out of the game due to hamstring tightness. Manager Oliver Marmol said that O'Neill's exit was precautionary. At this point, fantasy managers should consider O'Neill day-to-day going forward. The Cardinals might hold him out of Monday's contest just as a precaution. Hopefully, this won't be an issue that forces O'Neill to the injured list. Fantasy managers should check back for another update on Monday.

Tyler O'Neill Turning A Corner In June?

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill had a dreadful first two months of the 2022 season. Across 32 games in April and May, he slashed just .195/.256/.297 with two home runs and three stolen bases. However, since being activated from the injured list on June 7, he has been looking like a different player at the plate. Over nine games since his activation, he has hit .357/.367/.500 while compiling one home run, two stolen bases and six RBI. Unfortunately, his recent hot stretch hasn't come alongside the most impressive underlying metrics. He has a .254 xBA and an 87.5 mph average exit velocity this month. During his breakout 2021 campaign, he had a .279 xBA and a 93 mph average exit velocity. O'Neill's versatility and upside make him someone worth holding onto in all fantasy formats, but he still has some work to do in proving that 2021 wasn't the outlier season for him.

Tyler O'Neill Activated From Injured List

The St. Louis Cardinals activated outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday and optioned right-hander Jake Walsh to Triple-A Memphis in a corresponding move. O'Neill will return to St. Louis after going 5-for-13 with a home run on his three-game minor league rehab assignment. The 26-year-old outfielder is hitting just .195/.256/.297 on the season with two home runs, 20 RBI, 14 runs scored and three stolen bases in 32 games, but his power/speed upside makes him worth rostering in most mixed leagues. O'Neill will return to a starting role in St. Louis' outfield, and Dylan Carlson (hamstring) should join him soon.

Tyler O'Neill Blasts Homer In Rehab Game

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) appears to be getting back into a groove at the plate. On Saturday, the young outfielder went 2-for-4 with a solo home run during a minor league rehab game in Triple-A. It sounds like O'Neill is ready to return, but Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol mentioned O'Neill won't be ready until later next week. Fantasy managers should check the waiver wire and make sure O'Neill isn't sitting there.

Tyler O'Neill, Dylan Carlson Could Return Next Weekend

St. Louis Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol doubts that outfielders Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) and Dylan Carlson (hamstring) will be ready to come off the injured list in time to join the team for their series against the Tampa Bay Rays from next Tuesday through Thursday. Both players served as the designated hitter on Friday during their minor league rehab games, and they will progress to playing the outfield this weekend. O'Neill went 3-for-5 with a double, while Carlson went 0-for-3 with a strikeout on Friday. Both O'Neill and Carlson have struggled at the plate for the Cardinals this year before their injuries, but they should both return to starting roles when they are healthy and should remain stashed in the vast majority of fantasy leagues.

Tyler O'Neill Goes 3-For-5 In First Rehab Outing

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) played in his first rehab game at Triple-A Memphis on Friday. He had a strong day at the plate, going 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored. The 26-year-old has been on the shelf since May 17 due to right shoulder soreness. He'll likely need to play in just a few more rehab games before returning to the Cardinals. Juan Yepez and Corey Dickerson have been covering left field with O'Neill out. Upon O'Neill's return, Dickerson's playing time should take a big hit and we'll likely see the team move Yepez around the field a good amount to keep him in the lineup.

Tyler O'Neill To Begin Rehab Assignment Friday

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) is scheduled to serve as the designated hitter on Friday for Triple-A Memphis to start his minor league rehab assignment. O'Neill recently visited with a doctor and has been out for two weeks with a sore right shoulder. Evidently his doctor visit went well, and he could return from the injured list at some point next week if he doesn't encounter any setbacks in the minor leagues. Despite hitting just .195/.256/.297 with two home runs, 20 RBI, 14 runs scored and three stolen bases in 32 games for the Cardinals this year, O'Neill figures to return to a regular outfield role when he rejoins the major league club.

Tyler O'Neill Could Start Rehab Assignment Next Week

St. Louis Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol is hopeful that outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) will begin a minor league rehab assignment early next week. O'Neill landed on the injured list on May 19 with a right shoulder impingement, but he could be ready to return from the IL when he's eligible in early June if he can avoid any setbacks. Brendan Donovan, Corey Dickerson and Juan Yepez have been rotating playing time in the outfield with O'Neill sidelined, and infield prospect Nolan Gorman is also getting some run at the keystone for the Cardinals. Yepez (.288, four home runs) and Donovan (.333 with a homer, nine RBI and a steal) have been great pickups off the waiver wire in deeper leagues.
