Michael Conforto (OF, NYM) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues / Matchup Streamer

OWNED IN: 5% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: Conforto hasn’t contributed too much to the Year of the Rookie, but most pundits expected him to struggle making the jump from Double-A. He’s currently hitting .224/.333/.448 with 3 HR and 11 RBI as part of a platoon in LF. He’s only had 5 AB vs LHP to this point. Good news for Conforto and rummaging fantasy owners is this week should be filled with playing time. The Mets currently have five RHP lined up (Williams, Eickhoff, Harang, Wright, Kelly). Combine that with Conforto’s .805 OPS vs RHP and we have a recipe for success. With him available in 95% of leagues, it’s likely this pick will help anyone out there.
