Conforto went 2-for-4 with a sole home run in Friday's 5-1 loss to the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
It's his second homer in three games and 12th of the year. but it's also Conforto's first multi-hit performance since he came off the IL on May 26. He's slashing just .217/.315/.478 in 12 games since his return from a concussion, but the 26-year-old appears to be heating up.

Conforto went 1-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in Wednesday's 7-0 win over the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
His solo shot in the fourth inning gave Conforto his second homer in 10 games since being activated from the IL, and his 11th overall this season. The outfielder's .251/.381/.497 slash line through 52 games is still below his 2017 breakout performance, but he's at least ahead of last year's pace.

Conforto (concussion) will start in right field and bat third Sunday against the Tigers, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
Conforto was activated off the 7-day injured list earlier Sunday and takes his usual place in the lineup after missing nearly two weeks. The 26-year-old will look to pick up where he left off after going 7-for-15 with three homers in his last five games before landing on the IL.

The Mets plan to activate Conforto (concussion) from the 7-day injured list prior to Sunday's game against the Tigers, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Prior reports suggested that Conforto wasn't on track to return until Monday's series opener with the Dodgers, but the outfielder apparently made quicker progress than expected this weekend. Conforto, who hasn't played since May 16 due to the concussion, will likely rejoin the lineup Sunday, providing some much-needed reinforcement to a banged-up Mets outfield.

Conforto (concussion) was not activated from the 7-day injured list Friday, but the Mets remain hopeful that he'll be back by the start of their upcoming road trip, which begins Monday, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
Recovery time from concussions remains quite difficult to predict with any level of precision, so it's tough to be too confident in any particular return date for Conforto. Aaron Altherr will start in right field Saturday.

Conforto (concussion) won't be activated off the 7-day injured list Friday, Matt Ehalt of Yahoo Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Conforto is eligible to be activated Friday, but it's not major surprise he won't rejoin the active roster as the Mets provided no previous indication he was ready to do so. According to Anthony DiComo of MLB.com, Conforto said he feels 100 percent and believes he could be activated as early as Saturday, though he must still officially clear the concussion protocol.

The Mets have given no indication Conforto (concussion) will be activated from the 7-day injured list Friday when first eligible, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
One of three starting outfielders currently on the IL, Conforto looks the closest to returning to action even though a exact date for his activation hasn't been determined. Conforto at least took another meaningful step forward in his recovery Thursday, as he increased the intensity of his running program, hit off a tee and tracked breaking balls in the batting cage. Even if Conforto doesn't get the green light to play in Friday's series opener with the Tigers, he should be back in the lineup soon after.
