7 years agoNew York Mets outfielder Michael Conforto may still not be hitting for any power, but his recent stretch of games was easily his best of 2018. An 0-for-3 finish on Monday against the Pittsburgh Pirates snapped his seven-game hitting streak, but let’s not let that get in the way of the progress he's made. Over the course of those seven games, Conforto slashed .370/.400/.481 (.881 OPS) with three doubles, five runs scored and two RBI. As mentioned, the power hasn’t been there for Conforto, but really nothing has been this year until that hitting streak. Our fingers are crossed this is a sign of good things to come for the 25-year-old.--John Smith

4 months agoAccording to Mark Feinsand of the MLB Network, the Los Angeles Dodgers have signed free-agent outfielder Michael Conforto to a one-year, $17 million contract. The veteran outfielder enjoyed a solid campaign with the Giants last season from a power perspective, holding a .237/.309/.450 slash line with 20 home runs. This was his highest home run total since the 2019 season. Under the hood, the 31-year-old generated a strong .479 xSLG, 11.8% barrel rate, and 46.0% hard-hit rate, all well above the average marks. However, Conforto did carry a hefty 24.2% strikeout rate and a modest 8.6% walk rate. Moving to the Dodgers, fantasy managers should expect Conforto to see an uptick in his counting stats, especially in RBI. Fantasy managers should monitor his status during spring training, as he could be given an everyday role in the starting nine.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

7 months agoSan Francisco Giants outfielder Michael Conforto (undisclosed) has been scratched from the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The organization hasn't given a reason as to why Conforto was scratched, so fantasy managers will have to check back for an update. Jerar Encarnacion will take over at designated hitter and bat sixth versus right-hander Ryne Nelson on Tuesday. Through 20 games, Encarnacion is hitting .262 with two home runs and nine RBI this season. However, fantasy managers should be able to find a better streaming option ahead of Tuesday's game. UPDATE: Conforto was scratched due to side tightness but is expected to play on Wednesday.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller

7 months agoSan Francisco Giants first baseman/outfielder LaMonte Wade Jr. and outfielders Michael Conforto and Mike Yastrzemski are all out of Wednesday's series finale against the Chicago White Sox at Oracle Park against All-Star left-hander Garrett Crochet. Mark Canha is starting at first base and batting second, rookie Grant McCray is in center field and hitting ninth, and Jerar Encarnacion is in right field and in the five-hold. Fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised at all that any of these three left-handed hitters are sitting out with a southpaw on the mound. Wade has only had 34 plate appearances against lefties in 2024. Crochet has been one of the most dominant pitchers in all of baseball this year, so none of Canha, McCray or Encarnacion should be particularly attractive DFS sleepers on Wednesday. Canha makes the most sense given his lineup spot and his .272 average (25-for-92) against lefties in 2024.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

8 months agoSan Francisco Giants outfielder Michael Conforto and infielder Brett Wisely are both out of the starting lineup against a left-handed pitcher for Thursday's series finale against the Atlanta Braves at Oracle Park. Jerar Encarnacion is starting in left field and is batting fifth, while Casey Schmitt is at the keystone and hitting seventh against Braves left-hander Max Fried. Conforto has only had 85 plate appearances against left-handers this year, but he's hitting .316 (24-for-76) with five of his 12 home runs against them. He's had a good start to the month of August, too, going 14-for-42 (.333) with two homers, four doubles, a triple and 10 RBI in 13 games played. Neither Encarnacion nor Schmitt are particularly attractive low-cost DFS sleepers for Thursday's slate of action against Fried.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
