PT TOMORROW: NL East—Might Conforto soon rejoin the NYM OF mix?

New York Mets

With Curtis Granderson (OF, NYM) and Jay Bruce (OF, NYM) struggling of late, it’s a bit puzzling as to why the team hasn’t yet brought back Michael Conforto (OF, NYM). Granderson owns dreadful .532 OPS in his last 89 AB.
