The Mets are considering sending Michael Conforto to the minors to help the slumping outfielder regain his swing, according to the New York Post.
Citing multiple sources, the Post reported late Saturday that team officials think a demotion to Triple-A Las Vegas could benefit Conforto while simultaneously helping the Mets solve a logjam in their outfield.
The Mets had considered demoting Conforto in a corresponding move to Yoenis Cespedes' activation from the disabled list, according to the Post.
