Conforto is out of the lineup for Thursday's series finale against the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

The Dodgers are turning to another lefty on the hill Thursday with Hyun-Jin Ryu starting, so the Mets will give Conforto another night off. Conforto has made marked improvement against southpaws this season, hitting .238 with a .823 OPS after hitting .104 with a .295 off lefties in 2016. That said, Conforto had cooled off considerably of late overall with a .147/.341/.176 slash line over his last 14 games. Look for Conforto to rejoin the lineup Friday in San Francisco.
