Conforto will likely take over an everyday role in the Mets' outfield with Yoenis Cespedes (hamstring) on the DL, Marc Carig of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Jay Bruce spending time at first base in place of Lucas Duda (elbow), Conforto has already been making the most his opportunities. The 24-year-old is hitting .302 with four home runs and eight RBI and ranks second on the team with a .989 OPS. Conforto will have a chance to truly establish himself as a regular in the Mets' lineup, but will need to establish consistency if he wants to remain there. He hit just .220 over 109 games last season and racked up 89 strikeouts in the process.
