Conforto is expected to handle an everyday role in left field, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports. Prior to the Jorge Soler signing, Conforto was projected as the designated hitter, but that has changed. It's still early in spring training, and there's a chance another outfielder could infringe on Conforto's role, namely Luis Matos. Blake Sabol also played some left field in 2023, but for now, it's Conforto's job to lose.... See More ... See Less

Giants' Michael Conforto: Slated for designated hitter duty
Conforto is in line to serve as the Giants' primary designated hitter in 2024, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports. San Francisco wants to improve its outfield defense, which led to the signing of Jung Hoo Lee and its apparent plan to use Luis Matos in left field and Conforto at DH, at least against righties. Conforto made 104 of his 115 starts last year in the outfield but finished in the 22nd percentile in Outs Above Average, per Baseball Savant.... See More ... See Less -
Giants' Michael Conforto: Picks up $18M player option
Conforto exercised his $18 million player option for 2024 on Monday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports. Conforto missed all of the 2022 season following shoulder surgery and didn't have the bounce-back 2023 campaign that he envisioned, slashing just .239/.334/.384 with 15 home runs over 125 games. As such, he will opt into the one year remaining on his deal with the Giants and hope to play his way into a multi-year pact next winter.... See More ... See Less -

Conforto has been diagnosed with a Grade 2 left hamstring strain, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports. The outfielder suffered the injury Wednesday in Philadelphia and was placed on the injured list earlier Friday.

Giants' Michael Conforto: Placed on 10-day IL

This was Conforto's fourth straight multi-hit game, and he's supplied an extra-base hit in three of them. The outfielder's surge has him batting .325 in August, compared to .251 for the season. Overall, he's at a .758 OPS with 15 home runs, 55 RBI, 52 runs scored, four stolen bases and 12 doubles through 104 contests. As long as his bat is hot, he should maintain a spot in the starting lineup -- he's most often been in right field lately.... See More ... See Less -
Giants' Michael Conforto: Homers again Sunday
Conforto went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Sunday's 3-2 extra-inning win over the Rangers. This was Conforto's second straight game with a homer and also his second two-hit game of the weekend. The outfielder has come around at the plate a bit lately, batting .277 (13-for-47) with four extra-base hits over his last 15 games. He's maintained steady playing time despite his recent slump, though he could be impacted by the impending return of Mike Yastrzemski (hamstring) from the injured list.... See More ... See Less -
Giants' Michael Conforto: Pops homer in loss

The outfielder is at a .238/.332/.394 slash line with 14 homers, 53 RBI, 49 runs scored and four stolen bases through 101 contests, though his relatively punchless hitting of late has nullified his stronger play from earlier in the year....
