Tyler O’Neill's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Boston Red Sox outfielder Tyler O'Neill (calf) is likely to return to the starting lineup on Tuesday, according to manager Alex Cora. O'Neill has been plagued by calf issues twice during camp already. The Red Sox are going to take the cautious approach and hold him out until he's fully healthy. If he returns on Tuesday, fantasy managers shouldn't be concerned about his Opening Day status. Otherwise, O'Neill could be in danger of missing Opening Day if this calf issue causes him to miss another week or more. Fantasy managers will have to check back on Tuesday for another update on his status.

Boston Red Sox outfielder Tyler O'Neill (calf) has been scratched from the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Minnesota Twins. O'Neill missed time last week due to a calf issue, so it appears he has re-aggravated the injury. The expectation is that O'Neill is going to sit out for a few days before getting back into the lineup. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor this situation. The assumption is that O'Neill will be back to full health in time for Opening Day.

Boston Red Sox outfielder Tyler O'Neill (calf) is expected to return to Grapefruit League action on Tuesday, per the Boston Globe's Pete Abraham. The 28-year-old was dealing with tightness in his calf, so he did not make the trip to Santo Domingo over the weekend for the Dominican Republic Series matchup with the Tampa Bay Rays. O'Neill has made a good first impression with his new team to this point, batting .286 with a home run, three RBI, and two stolen bases in 14 at-bats.

Boston Red Sox outfielder Tyler O'Neill is dealing with tightness in his calf, so he will not make the trip to Santo Domingo for this weekend's Dominican Republic Series matchup with the Tampa Bay Rays. He is, however, expected to play Monday when the team returns to Fort Myers for a game against the Pirates. At least this means his status for Opening Day shouldn't be in doubt, but for managers who were hoping for a sneaky under-the-radar power-speed player late in drafts, it's certainly a situation to monitor. One of the Sox's offseason acquisitions, O'Neill is 4-for-14 (.286) with a home run and a stolen base through six spring games.

Boston Red Sox outfielder Tyler O'Neill, who was acquired in a trade with the St. Louis Cardinals this offseason, is likely to see much of his playing time in left field in 2024 in his first year in Beantown. Masataka Yoshida is expected to take a step forward defensively this year but he's also expected to see time at designated hitter. O'Neill figures to be in the mix for at-bats at DH, too, with the Red Sox expected to use the spot as more of a rotation with Triston Casas and Rafael Devers also getting DH time. With O'Neill in left, Wilyer Abreu should get the first shot at right field. The 28-year-old O'Neill's fantasy stock is on the decline after he played in just 72 games in 2023 due to more injuries. His plate skills deteriorated as well, but he'll be given plenty of playing time and gets an upgrade in home ballpark with the move to Boston.
