Conforto is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Conforto went 3-for-9 with a double and three RBI while starting in both ends of Sunday's doubleheader loss to the Yankees. The Mets are facing a quick turnaround with Monday's contest beginning at 1:10 p.m. ET, so manager Luis Rojas likely viewed it as a good time to give Conforto his first day off of the season. Brandon Nimmo will shift over to right field to spell Conforto while Jake Marisnick enters the starting nine as the Mets' center fielder.

Conforto went 2-for-2 with a solo home run, three runs scored, a stolen base and a pair of walks in Wednesday's 5-4 win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Conforto played a starring role in Mets' offense Wednesday, with his biggest contribution being his third-inning homer. He also got aboard with a walk in the fifth inning and added a stolen base, his third of the year. The 27-year-old attempted another steal in the seventh, but he was caught that time. Conforto is up to five homers, 14 RBI, 20 runs scored and a .324/.444/.520 slash line through 29 contests.

Conforto went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Wednesday's win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
He took Miami closer Brandon Kintzler deep in the top of the ninth inning to break a 3-3 tie. Conforto hadn't gone yard since Aug. 8 -- also, perhaps not coincidentally, against the Marlins -- and on the season he now sports a strong .312/.434/.495 slash line with four homers, two steals, 13 RBI and 17 runs through 26 games.

Conforto went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, three runs and two RBI in Wednesday's 11-6 win over the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Conforto extended his hitting streak to a season-best nine games with another outstanding day at the plate. He'll carry an impressive .324/.425/.515 slash line into the Mets' series finale against the Nationals on Thursday, when he'll start in right field and bat cleanup.

Conforto went 1-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run in Saturday's 8-4 win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Daniel Castano, making his big-league debut, left an 82-mph changeup over the plate in the second inning and Conforto did not miss. All three of Conforto's home runs this season have come against left-handed pitching. He hit six homers against left-handed pitching all of last year.

Conforto went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Tuesday against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Conforto took Patrick Corbin deep in the fourth inning to record his second home run of the season. He's swung the bat well of late, as he has two multi-hit games in his last four starts. For the campaign, Conforto has reached base 20 times in 51 plate appearances, while driving in six and scoring six runs.

Conforto went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Monday's 7-4 win over the Red Sox.

Conforto went 3-for-3 with a double, a run scored and a walk in Saturday's 5-3 extra-inning loss to the Braves.
EDGE Analysis
Conforto's double came in the second inning, and he got the Mets on the board by scoring on an Amed Rosario triple. The 27-year-old Conforto batted seventh versus Braves southpaw Max Fried on Saturday, but expect the right fielder to be higher in the order against right-handed pitchers.

Conforto (oblique) has been taking regular batting practice and is expected to be back to full strength when the Mets reconvene for workouts, barring any sort of setback in his training, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Conforto is one of several injured MLB players who has benefited from the extended recovery time afforded to him by the coronavirus pandemic, as his strained right oblique -- which once threatened his availability for Opening Day -- is unlikely to be an issue once the season resumes. Coming off three straight seasons of 25-plus home runs, Conforto is expected to slot in as the No. 3 hitter in a Mets lineup that could be improved from 2019 with better health from the likes of Yoenis Cespedes, Brandon Nimmo and Robinson Cano.
