Tyler O'Neill To Return On Saturday
4 months agoBoston Red Sox outfielder Tyler O'Neill (leg) will come off the 10-day injured list on Saturday. It was initially reported that O'Neill was targeting a return from a leg infection on either Sunday or Monday, but he'll now return a little earlier. The 29-year-old was released from a hospital earlier this week and will rejoin the big-league roster this weekend in a crucial series at Camden Yards against the division-rival Baltimore Orioles. O'Neill has been out since Aug. 2 and isn't going on a minor-league rehab assignment, so fantasy managers may want to expect a little rust at the plate. His return should push Ceddanne Rafaela back to regular duties at shortstop, with Jarren Duran shifting to center field. O'Neill has produced 22 home runs, 45 RBI and 59 runs scored in 298 at-bats in his first year in Beantown in 2024 while hitting .268 (80-for-298).
