Fantasy Impact

Conforto hit a solo home run in the second, walked and scored in the fourth, singled in the fifth, and doubled in the seventh. He finished with three of Chicago's seven hits in his second multi-hit game of the year. Conforto is 4-for-6 with two home runs in four May contests and is batting .462 (6-for-13) over his last seven games. The veteran is slashing .361/.467/.667 with two home runs and eight RBI in 36 at bats this season. However, his fantasy value is hampered by his limited playing time.

Michael Conforto hit a pinch-hit, walk-off solo home run with two outs in the bottom of the ninth to give the Cubs a 5-4 win over the Reds on Monday.

Fantasy Impact

Conforto hit a 3-2 pitch from Reds' closer, Emilio Pagan, over the center field wall for his first career walk-off blast and his first home run in a Cubs' uniform. While he's not a regular in the Chicago lineup, he's been solid in his limited opportunities. Conforto is batting .323 (10-for-31) with a home run and six runs batted in over 18 games this season.

Michael Conforto tied the game with an RBI double in the bottom of the ninth inning on Sunday as the Cubs came from behind to defeat the Mets, 2-1, in 10 innings.

Fantasy Impact

Conforto pinch-hit for Matt Shaw with one out in the bottom of the ninth and ripped a game-tying double - his third of the year - off of Mets' closer, Devin Williams. Conforto has seen limited playing time, recording 23 at bats in 13 appearances. He is, however, hitting .304 (7-for-23) with three doubles and four runs batted in this season. Conforto will likely remain in a bench role with an occasional start to spell the regulars.

Michael Conforto will be added to the Cubs' Opening Day roster.

Fantasy Impact

Conforto agreed to a minor-league contract with the Cubs in late February after posting a mere .637 OPS with a dozen homers over 486 plate appearances with the Dodgers last year. The veteran is now set to be added to the Cubs' roster ahead of Opening Day next week. Conforto is expected to be utilized in a bench role.

Conforto hit .237/.759 OPS with 20 home runs over 130 games for San Francisco in 2024. He posted a .199 average with a .638 OPS and 12 home runs across 138 games with Los Angeles in 2025.

Fantasy Impact

Chicago signed him to a minor-league contract last month. Tyler Austin underwent surgery on his right knee and will miss several months, opening at least one reserve outfield position. Conforto's spring performance has created momentum toward earning an Opening Day bench spot with the Cubs.
