BALLER MOVE: Hitter Streamer for Week 8
OWNED IN: 47% of leagues
ANALYSIS: Michael Conforto provided a pleasant surprise to fantasy owners early this year when he returned from injury much sooner than expected. However, he has followed that pleasant surprise with disappointment, starting the year with an extremely underwhelming line of .200/3/15/9/1.
While there are not many positive signs in his batted ball profile to suggest that he is simply unlucky (other than a low BABIP which is reflective of other poor aspects of his profile rather than bad luck), he simply has too much talent to be left off this list.
If Conforto is healthy, he will show the promise at some point that led to his 146 wRC+ last year with a line of .279/27/72/68/2 in just 109 games. He is a gamble due to possible lingering health issues, but the upside is hard to ignore
