The Boston Red Sox didn’t make many additions during the MLB offseason, but one player to keep an eye on is Tyler O’Neill. The outfielder, who spent his first six seasons with the St. Louis Cardinals, had a standout 2021 campaign with a .286 batting average, 34 home runs, and 80 RBI. O’Neill finished eighth in National League MVP voting.
One thing that sets O’Neill apart from other players is his ability to hit a home run on Opening Day. He has done this in four consecutive years, tying the record for the longest streak in MLB history. When the Red Sox open their 2024 season against the Mariners in Seattle, O’Neill has the chance to set a new record with a fifth consecutive Opening Day homer.
Despite his success on Opening Day, O’Neill has historically been a slow starter with a .228 batting average in March and April combined. However, if he can start the season strong, it could provide a significant boost to manager Alex Cora’s ballclub and set the tone for their hopes of making it to the playoffs. With their offense relying heavily on him, O’Neill’s early-season performance will be crucial to their success this season.
