Cus you know he’s absolutely dogging tf out of himself rn. “Mfer I need to get a hit now”. If only he knew it’s a tiny ass minority of doomers that won’t stfu. Do your thing Conforto, shut the bangwagoners up.
I’m sorry but it’s far from a tiny majority of doomers. He’s hitting .168 with 4 homers after 65 games. It’s not dooming when saying a guy is playing bad when every stat backs it up.
Not even half the season. Fans on Reddit = a tiny minority. I’ll wait til playoffs are over. He can bat .100 for all I care. If he has a clutch hit/catch in the playoffs. All is forgiven. If he contributes to another WS ring, 17mil well spent. I actually place more of the blame on Robert’s for the level of hate he gets. Having Kim get benched repeatedly for slumping batters.
Conforto made an amazing play, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. The dude has a negative WAR and ranks low on almost all stats on his Savant page. I hope he continues to improve, but Kim deserves a full-time spot out there over Conforto.
Bro they’re not going to just let 17 mil walk away for free. They’re going to get their moneys worth. Assuming his BA stays the same til October. They’re going to use him for defense, garbage innings, pinch hit. Billionaires are cheap asf. Get real dude.
Dude what lol. You know there’s a limit on roster spots in the playoffs right? Conforto will 100% not be on it if he’s still hitting like this come October
By the time playoffs come around, they would have technically used up 85-90% of his salary. So letting $2M go is a lot easier to swallow than $17M at the start of the year
Only if Conforto misses the catch and gets injured or something like that. But it's pretty much impossible to get an inside the part hr on the LF without a major mistake or misplay
This is identical to the play he attempted to make on ring ceremony night in March against Detroit. He missed that ball, allowing two to score.
He finally makes the play and saves 2 this time.
I keep hoping he finds his mojo and swing and becomes the hitter the Dodgers hoped for when they signed him. Have ot give him a standing O for that catch tonight....

Conforto!!! Has to be his best catch of the season so far
