Tyler O'Neill crushes second homer of the spring Friday

Tyler O'Neill went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, a walk, and two runs scored in the Cardinals' 4-4 spring tie with the Astros on Friday.
Fantasy Impact:
O'Neill has just two hits so far this spring, but both have been home runs. We should get used to that with O'Neill, as the 23-year-old has displayed massive power as a prospect but also struck out 40% of the time in 142 major league PA last season. O'Neill is projected to start the season in the minors, but if high-priced veteran Dexter Fowler struggles again O'Neill could overtake him for playing time early in the season. Still, O'Neill will have to cut down on the strikeouts before we can expect sustainable major league success. He's a late round lottery ticket in most formats.
