I'd put that the other way around. All things that are metaphysically possible are logically possible but not all things that are logically possible are metaphysically possible. For something to be logically possible, or conceivable, it merely has to not be self-contradictory. But for something to be metaphysically possible it has to have some sort of chance of actually happening in the world.
