Michael Conforto Hopes To Return Before May 1
7 years agoThe New York Mets have been sticking to a May 1 return date for outfielder Michael Conforto (shoulder), but Conforto apparently has other plans. Conforto recently returned to simulated game action, hitting two home runs on Wednesday, and is scheduled to play the field during a minor league game on Thursday. All projections did not have Conforto reaching this stage of his recovery this quickly, and the rapid progression has Conforto thinking about an earlier return. According to him, it’s not about the shoulder anymore, but more about getting used to full game action. The Mets may feel differently about the timing for their budding superstar, but it’s encouraging nonetheless that Conforto is feeling great.
