If the game had been later, he likely would have played. It doesn't sound like much of a concern for the 27-year-old, who could be back in the lineup as soon as Friday for the start of a series against the Pittsburgh Pirates. With O'Neill out Thursday, Ben ...

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Braves. This appears to be a regular rest day for the 27-year-old outfielder. Although, it's worth noting that O'Neill has been losing a decent amount of playing time to Corey Dickerson. In fact, Dickerson will start over O'Neill on Sunday against right-hander Jake Odorizzi. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too worried, but it is a little frustrating for anyone who has O'Neill ...

He scored two runs in the game.

This isn't much consolation to fantasy managers who had high ...

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 ...

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...
