Liam O'Neil brings contact-struggle risk but intriguing infield versatility and on-base skills
In 2026, O'Neil has struggled at the plate for William & Mary, hitting .130 with a .200 OBP and .261 slugging in 13 games, but his profile still shows a right-handed infielder with enough defensive value and prior run-production flashes to keep him on the radar.[1][2][3] Earlier stops suggest he can be more than the current line implies: at Polk State, he was a middle-of-the-order bat who hit .268 with 7 homers and 36 RBIs in 2025 after a .289, 8-HR freshman season, and he also earned academic recognition.[2] If you need a depth infielder who has shown pop, base-running value, and a strong work/character reputation, he is worth a look—but the bat has to rebound first.[2][3]
