St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill saw his name in trade rumors leading up to the Aug. 1 deadline.
"I had no idea what was going to happen, honestly," O'Neill told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. "I don't know what goes on in the negotiation rooms and what kind of return they would be looking for. I'm just trying to keep my head down here, take care of my business, have confidence in my routine and just go to work. I think that's how I handle it best."
"I'm feeling physically good," O'Neill, 28, said. "There's confidence in that for me. I can just kind of show up and trust my routine and just go play and go compete rather than be fighting stuff and spending additional time in the training room and whatnot. That's in the rear-view mirror for me now. I'm just focused on the here and now and just playing ball again.
"He on any given day is the most talented player on that field," Marmol said. "From a skill set standpoint, it's real. The combination of speed and power is definitely there. He's done a really nice job. He's playing really good defense, getting to a lot of baseballs. His swings, in my opinion, have been really good."
Gomber held the San Diego Padres to two runs on six hits and two walks in six innings on July 31 in his last start. The Rockies won that game 4-3 in 10 innings."That's fine. That's Austin," Rockies manager Bud Black said after the game. "He's fueled by competition. He likes being out there. He likes when it's his day. ... He wants us to win, and he wants to be part of us winning.
