PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (CBSNewYork/AP) — New York Mets manager Terry Collins has to figure out this spring which Michael Conforto he has — the outfielder who was a rookie sensation in 2015 or the one who was demoted in the middle of a terrible slump last year.
Conforto’s five-hit weekend was a nice start.
Conforto homered for the second time in exhibition play and also singled Sunday in a 5-2 win over Detroit, making him 5 for 7 so far.
Collins believes he knows the answer to his Conforto conundrum, saying he has faith in the 2014 first-round selection.
