Michael Conforto did not see action for the entire 2022 MLB season. He got a qualifying offer from the Mets after the 2021 season but he rejected it, hoping he would score a bigger deal in free agency.

At the end of the day, Michael Conforto managed to find his way back to a big league roster when he signed a two-year deal worth $36 million with the Giants in December.
