Baltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) will come off the injured list when the team begins a series against the Atlanta Braves on Friday, according to Sam Cohn of the Baltimore Sun. O'Neill has been out of action since going on the 10-day IL with a left shoulder impingement on May 18. The 30-year-old has also spent time on the IL this season with a neck injury. When he has been healthy enough to play, O'Neill has posted a miserable .188/.280/.325 line with two home runs, 10 RBI, and two stolen bases across 24 games and 93 plate appearances. O'Neill has upside as a two-time 30-HR hitter, including last season with Boston, and will try to regain that form upon his return.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) is reporting to Triple-A Norfolk on his minor-league rehab assignment, and the Orioles think he could be reinstated from the 10-day injured list on their current road trip, which ends this Sunday, July 6. In six rehab games, O'Neill has gone 4-for-18 with a home run and nine strikeouts as he rehabs from a left-shoulder injury that he suffered in early June. The 30-year-old Canadian has had a miserable first year in Baltimore to this point, playing in only 24 games and going 15-for-80 (.188) at the plate with two home runs, 10 RBI, two steals and 27 strikeouts in 93 trips to the plate. When he does come off the IL, O'Neill should see regular playing time for the O's in left field as he tries to stay on the field and turn things around offensively. O'Neill has two 30-homer seasons in his career, with one of them coming in 2024 with the Boston Red Sox.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) is back on the comeback trail from his left shoulder impingement that landed him on the injured list on May 18. He started his rehab in the first week of June but was shut down to receive an anti-inflammatory injection and was shut down for a week. He returned to action on Sunday in Single-A after an 11-day break and went 1-for-3. He said he's feeling much better during this ramp-up and will head to play for the Double-A Chesapeake Baysox. He still doesn't have a concrete timetable for a return, but there is optimism he could be back before the end of June or early in July if his rehab goes well. O'Neill has been limited to just 24 games with the O's this season and is hitting .188 with a .266 wOBA, two home runs and two stolen bases in his limited time available.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) is set to resume his rehab assignment on Sunday with High-A Aberdeen. O'Neill has been dealing with some soreness in his shoulder, which has halted his rehab assignment. However, the 30-year-old appears to be back on track. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status, as he could be activated from the 10-day IL in the coming weeks. O'Neill initially hit the injured list with a left shoulder impingement on May 18. Before his injury, O'Neill was off to a slow start to the campaign, posting a .188/.280/.325 slash line with two home runs and two stolen bases through 24 contests. When he returns to Baltimore, fantasy managers should expect him to have close to an everyday role in the starting nine.

The Baltimore Orioles pulled outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) off his Triple-A rehab assignment on Saturday, according to Jake Rill of MLB.com. He received an injection in his ailing left AC joint and will be shut down for approximately one week. O'Neill went to the 10-day injured list with a shoulder impingement on May 18. He had made progress in his recovery until he began to feel soreness earlier this week. After this latest development, it's clear the 29-year-old won't make an imminent return to the majors. O'Neill pounded 31 home runs with the Boston Red Sox last season, leading the Orioles to hand him a three-year, $49.5 million guarantee in free agency. It hasn't worked out so far. O'Neill has been on the IL twice (once for neck soreness) and has batted just .188/.280/.325 line with two homers in 93 plate appearances. He won't be able to improve on those numbers for the foreseeable future.

MASN's Roch Kubatko reports that Baltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) is getting a few days of rest on his minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Norfolk as he works through left-shoulder soreness. Thursday will be O'Neill's second straight day off with the Tides. In the 29-year-old's three rehab games, he's gone 4-for-10 at the plate. He began his rehab assignment as a designated hitter but has played in right field his last two starts. O'Neill landed on the 10-day injured list a month ago with a left-shoulder impingement, and it's not a good sign that he's still having issues with it. The oft-injured outfielder should have a regular role in Baltimore's outfield when he recovers, but he was hitting just .188 (15-for-80) with two home runs, 10 RBI and 27 strikeouts in 93 trips to the plate over 24 games at the time of his injury.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) is scheduled to begin a minor-league rehab assignment this weekend, according to The Baltimore Banner's Andy Kostka. O'Neill is expected to join Triple-A Norfolk as he wraps up his rehab from a left-shoulder impingement. Barring a setback for the oft-injured 29-year-old outfielder, O'Neill could rejoin the big-league roster at some point next week. The Canadian has an enticing power profile after hitting 30-plus home runs for the second time in his career in 2024 with Boston, but he also continues to battle nagging injuries and was slashing just .188/.280/.325 with a career-worst .605 OPS with two homers, 10 RBI and 27 strikeouts in 93 trips to the plate in his first 24 games with the O's before getting injured. O'Neill figures to play regularly when he returns from the IL.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) is doing baseball activities and is close to going on a minor-league rehab assignment, according to MASN's Roch Kubatko. Barring a setback once O'Neill starts his rehab assignment, he should be an option to come off the 10-day injured list and rejoin Baltimore's big-league outfield in early June. The 29-year-old went on the IL on May 16 due to a left-shoulder impingement. O'Neill has also missed time this year with a neck injury and has gone just 15-for-80 (.188) with two home runs, 10 RBI, nine runs scored and two stolen bases in his first 24 games with the Orioles. Despite his rough start and injuries, O'Neill should play regularly for Baltimore when he returns to the IL. With O'Neill, Colton Cowser (thumb) and Ramon Laureano (ankle) all on the shelf, Dylan Carlson has seen more run of late.

The Baltimore Orioles are expected to place outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) on the 10-day injured list prior to their contest against the Washington Nationals on Sunday. O'Neill was scratched from Friday's contest due to shoulder soreness. He was also unable to play on Saturday. Andy Kostka of The Baltimore Banner reported that the Orioles will promote outfielder Dylan Carlson in a corresponding move. Over his last seven contests, O'Neill has posted a modest .067/.263/.067 line with a 6:4 K:BB and two stolen bases. Through his first 24 games in Baltimore, O'Neill has struggled, posting a .188/.280/.325 slash line with two home runs and two stolen bases. Under the hood, he has generated a strong 16.4% barrel rate. While he is sidelined, Heston Kjerstad and Carlson should split time in right field.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) remains out of the starting lineup on Saturday when they continue a series against the Washington Nationals. O'Neill was scratched from the lineup on Friday due to discomfort in his left shoulder. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status leading up to Sunday's game, in case the Orioles continue to hold him out of action. Over his last seven games, O'Neill has tallied just one hit and swiped two bags. This afternoon, Heston Kjerstad will cover right field, which opens left field for Ramon Laureano. Through 24 games this season, O'Neill has held a modest .188 AVG with a hefty 29% strikeout rate. The Orioles are worth targeting in DFS facing Washington right-hander Jake Irvin.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) was scratched from Friday's starting lineup against the Washington Nationals due to left-shoulder discomfort. O'Neill first felt it in the batting cage a few days ago, but it was especially sore on Friday. Manager Brandon Hyde said that O'Neill is being considered day-to-day. With the 29-year-old sitting out, Ramon Laureano got the start in left field for the O's and was hitting in the cleanup spot against Nationals left-hander MacKenzie Gore. While it doesn't sound like a serious injury, it's not great news for a player that was just activated from the injured list last Friday after a two-week absence due to neck inflammation. O'Neill has a nice power/speed combination, but he has trouble staying healthy and is hitting just .188 (15-for-80) with two homers, 10 RBI, nine runs and two steals in his first 24 games as an Oriole in 2025.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. O'Neill was activated off the injured list on Friday after missing time due to a neck injury. He went 1-for-3 in that game, but will sit this one out for rest purposes. In his absence, Heston Kjerstad and Ryan O'Hearn will cover the corner outfield spots against right-hander Jack Kochanowicz on Saturday. Fantasy managers should expect O'Neill to be back in the lineup on Sunday.

The Baltimore Orioles have activated outfielder Tyler O'Neill (neck) from the 10-day injured list prior to Friday's contest against the Los Angeles Angels. In a corresponding move, the Orioles have optioned third baseman Coby Mayo to Triple-A Norfolk. O'Neill is also in the starting nine this evening. He will bat sixth and cover right field. Before his injury, O'Neill held a modest .215/.284/.385 slash line with three doubles, one triple, and two home runs across his first 19 games of the campaign. He has tallied 10 RBI and scored eight runs. Under the hood, O'Neill has generated an impressive 17.4% barrel rate but has held a high 28.4% strikeout rate, which lowers his value in points leagues. This evening, he has a favorable matchup against Angels right-hander Kyle Hendricks, who enters this game with a 5.28 ERA.

Baltimore Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said that he is hopeful that outfielder Tyler O'Neill (neck) will rejoin the team this weekend in Anaheim for a series against the Los Angeles Angels and make his return from the 10-day injured list. In his first minor-league rehab game with Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday, O'Neill went 1-for-3 at the plate as the designated hitter. The 29-year-old oft-injured outfielder has been away from the Orioles since late April due to neck soreness, but he may only need one or two more rehab games in the minors before returning to big-league action for Baltimore. Even though the Canadian native was hitting just .215 (14-for-65) with two homers, 10 RBI and eight runs scored before his injury, he should return to being a lineup regular for the O's when he's activated. Ramon Laureano will likely be the biggest loser in terms of playing time when O'Neill is back.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (neck) is set to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday. This is an excellent sign for the 29-year-old as he appears to be nearing a return to action. O'Neill has been sidelined since April 24 with neck soreness. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression as he could be cleared to return this weekend to begin a series against the Angels. Before his injury, O'Neill held a .215/.284/.385 slash line with three doubles, one triple, and two home runs across 18 contests. During this stretch, he generated an elite 17.4 percent barrel rate with a strong .506 xSLG. When he does return to action, he should continue to see an everyday role in right field. Given his power upside, he is worth holding on to in five-outfielder leagues.

Baltimore Orioles general manager Mike Elias said that outfielder Tyler O'Neill (neck) and infielder Jordan Westburg (hamstring) are more "days away" than "weeks away" from returning from the injured list. The Orioles are talking about whether either player needs to go on a minor-league rehab assignment before being activated from the IL. The oft-injured O'Neill is eligible to return this Sunday and should return to a regular role in the Orioles outfield despite starting the season with a .215/.284/.385 slash line with two homers and 10 RBI in 75 plate appearances. Ramon Laureano will return to the bench when O'Neill returns. Westburg can come off the IL as soon as next Wednesday. The 26-year-old was also struggling at the plate with a .217 average, four home runs and six RBI, but he should resume his regular role at third upon his return, especially with Ramon Urias (hamstring) currently injured.

The Baltimore Orioles have placed outfielder Tyler O'Neill (neck) on the 10-day IL retroactive to Apr 24 with neck soreness. O's manager, Brandon Hyde, stated that he's "hopeful" it's a minimum stay for the veteran. O'Neill has been battling his neck issue for a few weeks now, and he'll finally have time to get it sorted. The power-hitting right-hander has had trouble staying healthy over the years, and 2025 has been no different. Baltimore recalled outfielder Dylan Carlson in a corresponding move. Before his trip to the IL, the 29-year-old had been scuffling at the plate, batting .118 over his last 51 at-bats (six hits). It's possible his neck ailment is at least partially to blame.

Baltimore Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said that outfielder Tyler O'Neill (neck) is out of Thursday's starting lineup against the hosting Washington Nationals with the same neck soreness that he dealt with last week. Hyde is hoping that O'Neill will be available off the bench on Thursday. Ramon Laureano is drawing the start in right field and is hitting seventh against Nationals left-hander MacKenzie Gore, who he has hit .833 against with three RBI in six career at-bats. The 29-year-old O'Neill missed two games last week with the neck injury, and it could turn into an injured-list situation if it doesn't clear up by the weekend. For now, though, fantasy managers should consider the Canadian outfielder to be day-to-day. O'Neill has gotten off to a poor start in his first year in Baltimore, hitting .215 (14-for-65) with two homers, 10 RBI and 21 K's in 74 trips to the plate. He's gone 1-for-20 with 11 K's in his last five games.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (neck) remains out of the starting nine on Thursday against the Cleveland Guardians. O'Neill was held out of the starting lineup on Wednesday due to neck discomfort. Fantasy managers should continue to keep an eye on his status leading up to their contest against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday evening. With O'Neill sitting out, Ryan O'Hearn will cover right field and bat in the four-hole. During his first 15 games in Baltimore, O'Neill has enjoyed an impressive start, holding a .265/.339/.490 slash line with three doubles and two round-trippers. Under the hood, he has generated a strong .370 xwOBA with an elite 18.4 percent barrel rate. O'Hearn is worth a look in DFS facing right-hander Tanner Bibee, who enters Thursday with a 4.40 ERA.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill (neck) has been scratched from Wednesday's starting lineup against the visiting Cleveland Guardians due to neck discomfort, according to The Baltimore Banner's Andy Kostka. Ramon Laureano will replace O'Neill in left field and hit ninth in the batting order against Guardians right-hander Gavin Williams. O'Neill, who has missed his fair share of time due to injuries in his career, should be considered day-to-day for now, but don't be surprised if he misses additional time. The O's wrap up their series against Cleveland on Thursday before starting a new weekend series on Friday against the visiting Cincinnati Reds. Laureano should be considered a long shot to return much DFS value in the nine-hole. He's gone 1-for-13 so far this year and has gone hitless in three career at-bats against Williams.
