Conforto (hamstring) went 1-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in Monday's 6-5 loss to the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Conforto served as the designated hitter, so the Giants may still be easing him back into action. He missed four games with hamstring tightness that forced him out of last Wednesday's game in Toronto. The outfielder is slashing .238/.336/.421 with 12 home runs, 42 RBI, 40 runs scored and two stolen bases over 72 contests this season. He'll likely return to left field in the coming days, which will leave Joc Pederson and Blake Sabol competing for time at DH.

Conforto (hamstring) is not expected to play this weekend versus the Mets, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Conforto is dealing with a fascia strain of his left hamstring and is missing a second straight start Friday. While the injury is considered mild, it sounds as if the Giants don't want to take any chances with it. It's a bummer for Conforto personally since this would be his first time back in New York to play against his former team, but at least it appears the outfielder will avoid the injured list.

The severity of his injury remains unknown, but it's possible he sits out at least one game to recover. The 30-year-old outfielder is slashing .203/.300/.319 since the start of June.
