Conforto finished the afternoon 2-for-4 with the homer, three RBI, and a walk. In 27 games this year he's hitting .345 with a 1.111 OPS, including some of the best expected stats in MLB. Despite the early success, he's struggled to earn consistent playing time even against righties as Moises Ballesteros has operated as the primary DH for most of the season so far. Conforto's playing time should continue to tick up for as long as he hits this well, but it could take an injury for him to factor into more consistent at-bats, and that likely wouldn't include time against lefties.
