Twenty-One Prediction Fun: Michael Conforto

You've got to give me that long-term deal. You've just gotta. After all, there's buzz about giving one to Syndergaard, and he's coming off major surgery, and isn't even on the field yet. Batters are much better investments then pitchers over the long haul, and I'm coming off my best season ... to the extent that you can call that a season.

Yeah, I mean, I did hurt myself pretty badly on a non-contact injury — which is the sort of thing pitchers do, but come on! I'm 28-ish, I'm 11th all-time in homers for this franchise, just outside the top 10, and that's something to take to the bank.

So tell me about about this year. How am I going to perform, and more importantly, how am I going to get paid?

And hey, check out the guest-starring role in this vid played by my new teammie, Kevin Pillar.
