FACTS/FLUKES: O'Neill, Heaney, Muncy, Stroman, M. Rojas

O’Neill fails to duplicate 2021 breakout … We wrote back in February that Tyler O’Neill’s (OF, STL) 2022 ADP of 49 was too rich for our liking, as we were skeptical of a repeat, and he has sputtered to a .228 BA, 14 HR and 14 SB through 383 PA. The 27-year-old started slowly and then missed a sizable chunk of time due to injuries (shoulder, hamstring, wrist) before showing signs of life in the second half. How are the underlying skills?
