Tyler O'Neill (allergic reaction) scratched from Cardinals' Tuesday lineup; Edmundo Sosa back in

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill will no longer start Tuesday in the team's game against the San Francisco Giants.

What It Means:

O'Neill reportedly had an allergic reaction to something he ate, and as a result, he's been removed from the starting lineup. Nothing suggests this will be anything other than a brief absence. After some defensive shuffling, Edmundo Sosa will re-enter the lineup, getting the nod at second base while batting eighth against Giants starter Johnny Cueto.

In 241 plate appearances this season, O'Neill has a .277 batting average with an .891 OPS, 15 home runs, 37 runs and 36 RBI.
