Michael Conforto Dealing With Grade 2 Hammy Strain
1 year agoUpdating a previous report, the San Francisco Giants are saying that outfielder Michael Conforto (hamstring) is dealing with a Grade 2 left-hamstring strain. He was placed on the 10-day injured list on Friday, but he'll likely need more than 10 days to return to the big-league roster. Conforto was injured in Wednesday's contest against the Philadelphia Phillies. Until Conforto returns, Luis Matos and Heliot Ramos could compete for playing time in right field for the Giants. The 30-year-old Conforto is hitting .251/.343/.405 in his first year in the Bay Area with 15 home runs, 55 RBI, four stolen bases and 55 runs scored in 426 trips to the plate and 111 games. His injury comes at a bad time, as he was hitting .300 (18-for-60) with two homers and 10 runs scored in 20 games (19 starts) in August.
