2024 Fantasy Outlook
Conforto signed a one-year, $18 million contract with the Giants in December of 2022 after missing the entire previous season because of a shoulder injury that eventually required surgery. It was a prove-it style of deal which Conforto was hoping to parlay into a multi-year pact after reestablishing himself as a power-hitting corner outfielder. Instead, he had to exercise the $18 million player option included in the agreement and will return to San Francisco with lingering questions about what kind of player he is and what kind of player he can be moving forward. Conforto held an .824 OPS across his first seven MLB seasons between 2015-21 before turning in just a .718 OPS in 2023. He hit 33 home runs over 151 games with the Mets in 2019 but has averaged only 20 homers for every 162 games played since the beginning of 2020. Outside of maybe OBP leagues, the current fantasy outlook here lacks a certain luster. Read Past Outlooks

Sitting again Friday
Conforto is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Rockies, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
With the Rockies sending southpaw Kyle Freeland to the mound Friday, Conforto will retreat to the dugout to begin the contest. Conforto sat Thursday against the Dodgers with Clayton Kershaw on the mound, but the former did pinch hit for Derek Hill in the sixth inning and went 1-for-2 with an RBI double in the eighth inning. Hill will start in left field Friday and bat ninth.

Stat Review
How does Michael Conforto compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Conforto's previous winter reminded us that baseball keeps good secrets. Conforto remained a free agent deep into the winter to the surprise of many outsiders until it was revealed that Conforto needed shoulder surgery to repair his labrum and he would miss the entire season. He had surgery on his front shoulder for his lefty swing which is normally an issue for hitters who have the surgery later in the year as it impacts their ability to get full extension on the swing. Conforto had his surgery early enough that he should be fully healed form the situation and hopefully be able to resume some level of power hitting after he signed with the Giants. The power numbers from 2017 to 2019 will likely skew expectations in the marketplace for what Conforto could do whereas a more realistic expectation coming off a missed season would be 15-20 homers with another healthy dose of walks. He is more valuable in the OBP formats given he has hit above .260 in just one full season.

Potential to be traded
The Giants could look to trade Conforto ahead of the July 30 deadline, reports John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle.
ANALYSIS
San Francisco remains in the playoff hunt as it sits just three games back of the final wild-card spot, but a 43-45 record means the team is just one losing streak away from being clear sellers. Conforto is earning $18 million this season in the final year of his contract, and he's not exactly playing up to that salary with a .234/.303/.427 slash line. The Giants may not be too picky when it comes to trading his expiring contract, as it would open up playing time for the likes of Heliot Ramos and Luis Matos.
