Remains out of action Tuesday
O'Neill (knee) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Phillies.
Analysis
O'Neill will miss a third straight start after his right knee injured flared up on him again this past Friday. The good news is he has not yet been placed on the injured list, so it would appear he remains day-to-day for the time being. Masataka Yoshida is at designated hitter Tuesday for the Red Sox and the club will have Jarren Duran, Ceddanne Rafaela and Rob Refsnyder in the outfield.

Out until at least Tuesday
Manager Alex Cora said Saturday that O'Neill (knee) will remain out of the lineup for Sunday's series finale with the White Sox, but the Red Sox remain hopeful to have him back in the lineup for Tuesday's series opener in Philadelphia following an off day Monday, the Associated Press reports. "If we can take advantage of the next three days and avoid the [injured list], that's what we're gonna do," Cora said.
Analysis
After being on the IL previously with right knee inflammation, O'Neill was activated Wednesday. However, O'Neill made just three starts before he was removed in Friday's 7-2 loss to Chicago in the third inning, after he had tweaked his knee while tracking down a flyball the inning prior. Though the Red Sox are seemingly optimistic that O'Neill will steer clear of another IL stint, he'll still need to demonstrate enough progress coming out of Monday's off day for that to become a reality. Bobby Dalbec started in right field in place of O'Neill in Saturday's 6-1 loss and could be the main beneficiary if O'Neill continues to miss more time beyond Sunday.

Sitting Saturday
O'Neill is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the White Sox, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
Analysis
O'Neill left in the third inning of Friday's 7-2 loss to the White Sox due to right knee discomfort. The 28-year-old recently came off the injured list due to inflammation in the same knee. O'Neill is slashing .250/.354/.500 with 11 home runs and 18 RBI over 181 plate appearances this season. Bobby Dalbec will start in right field Saturday and bat seventh against White Sox right-hander Nick Nastrini.

Leaves game with injury
O'Neill was removed from Friday's game against the White Sox due to an apparent knee injury, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.
Analysis
O'Neill had been visibly bothered by his right knee for about an inning before eventually coming out of the game during the third frame. The 28-year-old outfielder recently spent time on the injured list due to inflammation in the same knee, so the Red Sox will surely take a close look at him and should provide an update on his status in the near future.

Returns to action
O'Neill started at designated hitter and went 2-for-3 with two runs scored in Thursday's 14-2 win over the White Sox.
Analysis
This was O'Neill's second game back after being reinstated from the injured list Wednesday. He played nine innings in right field Wednesday followed by his stint as the DH on Thursday. O'Neill's hit safely in both games, going 4-for-7 with a walk, an RBI and three runs scored. Given the blowout nature of Thursday's contest, Red Sox manager Alex Cora pulled him after six innings.

Batting fifth in return from IL
The Red Sox reinstated O'Neill (knee) from the 10-day injured list Wednesday. He'll start in right field and bat fifth in Wednesday's series finale with Atlanta, according to Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald.
Analysis
He'll be back in action after spending the minimum 10 days on the shelf with right knee inflammation. Prior to being deactivated, O'Neill had been making most of his starts in left field or at designated hitter, but he could see regular action in right field for the foreseeable future after Wilyer Abreu (ankle) was placed on the IL on Tuesday.

Will be activated Wednesday
Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow confirmed that O'Neill (knee) will be activated from the 10-day injured list Wednesday, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.
Analysis
O'Neill was hitless in a rehab game with Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday, but more importantly, he came out of the contest with no concerns about his right knee, clearing the way for his return from the IL. The 28-year-old spent the minimum 10 days on the IL.

Gets three ABs in rehab start
O'Neill (knee) served as the designated hitter and went 0-for-3 while on rehab assignment for Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday.
Analysis
O'Neill kicked off a rehab assignment and played six innings as the DH for the WooSox. The Red Sox are optimistic he'll need only the minimum 10 days while on the injured list. Wednesday represents O'Neill's earliest possible return.
