Michael Conforto News
San Francisco Giants manager Bob Melvin said that outfielder Michael Conforto (side) has a very slight side issue, which is why he's not in the starting lineup on Monday versus the visiting Washington Nationals. However, it's likely that Conforto will return to action for the second game of the series on Tuesday and he thinks he'll be available off the bench on Monday. With the Giants being cautious with Conforto to begin the week, the left-handed-hitting Mike Yastrzemski will start in right field and bat sixth for the Gigantes on Monday against Nationals right-hander Trevor Williams. Yaz will be looking for his first career hit against Williams after facing him only three previous times. Conforto has been red-hot in the early going -- 13-for-37 with three home runs and 10 RBI in the first 10 games -- so his fantasy managers will surely be hoping he's back in there on Tuesday.
San Francisco Giants outfielder Michael Conforto (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Washington Nationals. There is no injury being reported so it's assumed that his absence is a routine rest day. It's a bit odd with a right-hander on the mound, but the expectation is he'll be back in the lineup on Tuesday. In the meantime, LaMonte Wade is starting in left field with Mike Yastrzemski moving to right field on Monday.
San Francisco Giants outfielder Michael Conforto will be batting cleanup for the fifth time this season. The left-handed bat will face San Diego Padres right-handed pitcher Matt Waldron in the rubber match of the three-game set on Sunday. Conforto has been swinging a hot bat to open the season with a dominant .382/.432/.765 stat line. The 31-year-old has also hit three round-trippers, scored eight runs, and tallied 10 RBI. Matt Waldron struggled in his first start this season as he allowed nine hits and four runs across four innings against the St. Louis Cardinals, making Conforto a very nice play in DFS, as he should see prime opportunities to bring in and score runs.

Following his 2019 breakout, Mets outfielder Michael Conforto delivered another impressive campaign in 2020, despite the small sample size. In 2020, Conforto posted a .322/.412/.927 line with a career-high .927 OPS, nine home runs, and 31 RBI in 202 at-bats. Similar to 2019, most of Conforto's metrics supported his performance, making a repeat in 2021 likely. In 2020, he generated a .284 xBA, a .475 xSLG, and a wOBA of .395 which was in the top six percent of MLB. Although Conforto saw a dip in overall launch angle and exit velocity compared to 2019, the percentage of 100 mph fly balls he hit increased by almost two percent in 2020. In addition, the average exit velocity on his top-5% hardest-hit balls in the air increased by over one mph in 2020. This, combined with an 11% barrel rate in 2020, suggests he will maintain his power production in 2021. Hitting in the middle of an even more potent Mets' lineup which now includes Francisco Lindor, Conforto will again have plenty of counting stat opportunities. With a current ADP of 76, managers should confidently draft Conforto as a second OF who can provide 30 home runs, 90-100 RBI, with some slight batting average regression. When healthy, Conforto is one of the Mets' most consistent offensive producers. 2021 will be no different.
