Tyler O'Neill News
St. Louis Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said that outfielder Tyler O'Neill (back) took light swings off a tee on Wednesday as he works to restart baseball activities. O'Neill has been on the injured list since May 5 with persistent back pain, but he appears to be making some progress this week. The 27-year-old will surely need at least a handful of minor-league rehab games before the Cardinals deem him ready to rejoin the big-league lineup, but there's a chance that could happen by early June. O'Neill has been a disappointment so far through 92 at-bats in 2023, and he was also benched for lack of hustle. He's currently hitting .228 (21-for-92) with four doubles, two home runs, six RBI and 34 K's in 29 games, but he'll most likely have an everyday role when he's back.
St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (back) hasn't progressed enough with his baseball activities in order to be cleared to begin a minor-league rehab assignment this weekend, according to manager Oliver Marmol. The Cardinals aren't rushing the 27-year-old back and will slow play things a little longer. O'Neill is currently on the injured list with a lower-back strain, and he hasn't played since May 4. Along with the injury, it's been a disappointing season so far for O'Neill's fantasy managers, as he's hitting just .228 (21-for-92) with four doubles, two home runs, six RBI and 12 runs scored in 99 plate appearances and 29 games. O'Neill's power/speed combination has left a lot to be desired the last two years, and injuries haven't helped.
The St. Louis Cardinals placed outfielder Tyler O'Neill (back) on the 10-day injured list and right-hander Jake Woodford (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list on Friday and recalled outfielder/infielder Juan Yepez and right-hander James Naile from Triple-A Memphis in corresponding moves. Right-hander Wilking Rodriguez (shoulder) was also moved to the 60-day IL. O'Neill will miss at least a week with a lower-back strain, and the 27-year-old was hitting a disappointing .228 with two home runs and one stolen base in 29 games this year. There's no timetable for his return. Yepez wasn't hitting very well in the minors prior to his call-up, but he had a combined 28 round-trippers between the majors and minors in 2022 and could see decent playing time against left-handed pitchers with O'Neill on the shelf.

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill was limited to 96 games in 2022 due to shoulder, hamstring, and leg injuries. The 27-year-old slashed .228/.308/.392 with 14 home runs, 58 RBI, 56 runs, and 14 stolen bases over 383 plate appearances last season. Injuries could have been one of the reasons O'Neill's numbers dipped in 2022. He saw his exit velocity drop from 93 MPH in 2021 to 89.8 MPH in 2022, while his hard-hit percentage fell from 52.2% in 2021 to 43.4% in 2022. The young slugger is a dual threat and will look to rebound in 2023 after bashing 34 homers and stealing 15 bags in 2021. ATC is on board with this assessment and is projecting O'Neill with a .249/.320/.447 slash line with 26 home runs, 76 runs, 74 RBI, and 16 stolen bases in 2023. He could easily surpass those projections if he can stay healthy, as a 30-homer, 20-steal campaign isn't out of the question. O'Neill has an ADP of 103 in NFBC and could easily smash his ADP if he can come close to his 2021 totals. The high risk/high reward makes O'Neill well worth taking him at his current ADP, as fantasy managers could get a potential five-category star after pick 100.
