Paul attended Brookhaven High School – he played basketball for his school and would earn all-state honors during his senior year. He also played as a right fielder in baseball – from his youth he was a fan of the Cincinnati Reds – which led to him being selected in the 1981 Major League Baseball Draft.

As normal for rookie players, Paul spent three seasons in minor leagues, so didn’t make his major league debut until 1985, but played only five games in that season. The next year he would spend most of his time in the minors along with a few games in the major leagues, and continued to split his time in 1987 but appeared in 84 games for the Reds. 1988 marked his first full season with the Reds, playing 145 games scoring 16 home runs. This also marked the start of the rise of his net worth. He continued playing well in 1990 and would help Cincinnati win the World Series against the Oakland Athletics. In his final season with the Reds the following year, he displayed great skill by hitting 28 home runs in 152 games.

Paul was then traded to the Yankees, and was put into the lineup as the #3 hitter. He was also given a high-valued contract by the team, raising his net worth considerably. In 1994, he was selected to his second All-Star game despite the lockout-shortened season. He would then lead the Yankees to a postseason appearance, but they lost against the Seattle Mariners.1996 would be the year the Yankees won the World Series, their first since 1978. O’Neill continued to help New York reach the postseason, winning the World Series once again in 1998. This continued the following year, and he would contribute greatly to the teams win despite his father’s death. In 2000, the team would once again go to the World Series, this time in a local derby against the New York Mets. The Yankees reached the World Series yet again in 2001, but lost to the Arizona Diamondbacks, but O’Neill was given a very emotional sendoff from the diamond..

After retiring from professional baseball, Paul went on to become a baseball analyst for the YES Network, which he continues to this day. In 2009, he was inducted into the Irish American Hall of Fame along with other sports players.

For his personal life, it is known that Paul married Nevalee O’Neill in 1984, and they have three children. He has authored a book entitled “Me and My Dad: A Baseball memoir”, and he also has a plaque in Monument Park – he is considered the heart and soul of the 1990s Yankees.
