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

Boston Red Sox outfielder Tyler O'Neill had a productive game in his team's 9-4 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday. O'Neill went 1-for-3 with a homer, a walk, two runs, and two RBI but it wasn't enough as the Sox fell to the division rivals. The veteran outfielder launched a two-run homer off Toronto starter Kevin Gausman in the sixth inning, a blast that traveled 448 feet with an exit velocity of 113.1 MPH. O'Neill has been hitting well of late, batting .333 with five homers and 11 RBI over his past 15 contests. Overall it has been a productive first season with Boston for O'Neill, who is hitting .262 with 16 homers, 42 runs, 28 RBI, and one steal across 202 at-bats.

Boston Red Sox outfielder Tyler O'Neill (knee) recently received a cortisone shot in his knee, which he said has helped him. The 28-year-old has been out since May 26 due to right knee inflammation. The good news is that O'Neill could return as early as Wednesday when he's eligible to be removed from the injured list. Fantasy managers should be patient and hold onto O'Neill for a little longer. He has 11 homers in 41 games, so his power alone is worth keeping him on fantasy rosters.

Both Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora and outfielder Tyler O'Neill (knee) are optimistic that his stint on the injured list will be on the shorter end. O'Neill is nursing inflammation in his right knee after an MRI on Wednesday showed no structural damage, and he's eligible to return from the 10-day IL as soon as Wednesday's game against the visiting Atlanta Braves. The speedy 28-year-old slugger was hitless in his last 15 at-bats before hitting the shelf, and nine of his 11 home runs on the campaign for the Red Sox came back in April. O'Neill is also hitting a mere .159 (13-for-82) with two homers, six RBI, and 10 runs scored over his last 22 games, but he's still a fine stash in fantasy for his upside in the power department and everyday role in Boston's outfield when healthy.
