PT TOMORROW: NL East—Might Conforto soon rejoin the NYM OF mix?

New York Mets

With Curtis Granderson (OF, NYM) and Jay Bruce (OF, NYM) struggling of late, it’s a bit puzzling as to why the team hasn’t yet brought back Michael Conforto (OF, NYM). Granderson owns dreadful .532 OPS in his last 89 AB. Bruce was acquired to provide a much needed spark to the offense, but he has mustered a pitiful .516 OPS and 23 K in 81 AB as a member of the Mets.

Conforto, of course, suffered through his own rough stretch earlier this year, but he has been swinging the bat extremely well at Triple-A Las Vegas. In 65 AB since the All-Star break, Conforto has slashed .508/.556/.877 with 5 HR and 2 SB.
