Player Outlook
Brandon Nimmo re-signed with the Mets on an eight-year, $162 million contract last offseason, and he delivered an impressive campaign in 2023 with 24 homers, 68 RBI, 89 runs and a .274/.363/.466 slash line in 152 games. Most of Nimmo's numbers were nearly identical to his 2022 production, though he clubbed eight more home runs as he set career highs in flyball rate (39.2 percent), barrel rate (9.5 percent) and hard-hit rate (47.7 percent). It's the second straight year he's played in over 150 games, as it appears the durability issues that plagued him earlier in his career are now behind him (though he did spend the final two days of the season on the IL with a shoulder sprain). He's not much of a threat on the bases with three steals in each of the past two seasons, but he otherwise provides fantasy managers with well-rounded production. Assuming the injury concerns are fully behind him, Nimmo should be a top-100 option again in 2024.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Nabs 12th steal

    Rotowire
    Nimmo went 2-for-4 with a stolen base in Thursday's win over the Diamondbacks. The steal was his career-high 12th of the season but first since Aug. 2, snapping a 20-game drought on the basepaths. Nimmo is slashing just .226/.305/.381 on the month with two homers, two stolen bases, seven RBI and 10 runs in 22 contests.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Three hits Tuesday

    Rotowire
    Nimmo went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Tuesday's win over the Diamondbacks. Nimmo led the Mets with three hits Tuesday, though he only crossed the plate once and couldn't drive in any runs on a night when the Mets scored eight. It was Nimmo's first three-hit effort since the very beginning of the month, and he's gone without an RBI over his last five games. Nimmo has driven in a career-best 72 runs this year but his batting average is down significantly compared to the last few seasons. For the year, he's slashing .230/.341/.410 with 18 homers, 72 runs scored, 11 steals and a 68:133 BB:K in 542 plate appearances.

However, he'll return to the lineup for Tuesday's game, patrolling left field. Nimmo has homered in two of his last three games, collecting four RBI and four runs scored during that stretch.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: MRI comes back clean

    Rotowire
    The MRI on Nimmo's right shoulder came back clean Monday, and he's considered day-to-day, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports. Nimmo was removed from Sunday's game with shoulder discomfort and Monday's MRI confirmed that he isn't dealing with anything severe. Nimmo is out of the lineup Monday -- giving way to Tyrone Taylor in left field -- and is day-to-day moving forward.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Departs with shoulder injury

    Rotowire
    Nimmo was removed from Sunday's game against the Marlins due to shoulder discomfort, David Lennon of Newsday reports. Nimmo had an eventful seventh inning, as he fouled a pitch off himself in the top of the frame and had a diving catch to finish the bottom of the inning. According to Tim Healey of Newsday, the outfielder is scheduled to undergo an MRI on the shoulder Monday. Before exiting Sunday's contest, Nimmo went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo homer, his 18th long ball of the season.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Cracks homer in return

    Rotowire
    Nimmo went 2-for-5 with a three-run homer and an additional run scored in Friday's 7-3 win against Miami. After missing Thursday's game due to illness, the 31-year-old outfielder tattooed a 390-foot, three-run homer off reliever George Soriano for his first long ball since July 10, snapping a 27-gamne drought. Nimmo entered the game with a .140 batting average (12-for-86) in 23 games since the All-Star break. Overall, the nine-year vet is slashing .228/.343/.405 with 17 homers, 68 runs scored and 70 RBI across 508 plate appearances this season.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Back in lineup

    Rotowire
    Nimmo (illness) is batting third and playing left field Friday against Miami. Nimmo didn't play in Thursday's game against Oakland due to the stomach flu, but he's feeling well enough to suit up and start Friday's series opener. The left fielder is 0-for-13 with four walks, a run scored and an RBI across his last four games.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Battling stomach flu

    Rotowire
    Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said that Nimmo is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Athletics due to a case of the stomach flu, Tim Healey of Newsday reports. Mendoza noted that Nimmo was unable to get much sleep Wednesday night due to the ailment, so the Mets will hold him out of the lineup as they wrap up their series against Oakland with a day game. Jeff McNeil will pick up a start in the outfield in place of Nimmo, who has gone 3-for-32 with 11 strikeouts over his last nine starts to bring his batting average down to .226 for the season.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Sitting amid slump

    Rotowire
    Nimmo is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Athletics. Nimmo received a day off last Thursday in Colorado after he had gone 2-for-16 over his previous four starts, but the veteran outfielder doesn't seem to have benefited much from the break. While starting in each of the Mets' ensuing five games following the day off, Nimmo went 1-for-16 with four walks against six strikeouts. Nimmo doesn't appear to be in danger of losing hold of his everyday role in the New York outfield, but his .171/.271/.244 slash line since the beginning of August could nonetheless put him at risk of being held out of the lineup more often.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Sitting against left-hander

    Rotowire
    Nimmo is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game in Colorado, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports. The left-handed-hitting Nimmo will get the series finale off as the Rockies send southpaw Austin Gomber to the bump. Tyrone Taylor will occupy left field for the Mets.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Has three hits, steal in win

    Rotowire
    Nimmo went 3-for-5 with a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 5-1 win over the Angels. Nimmo broke out of a 4-for-49 slump over his last 13 games with a solid showing in Friday's win. It's the sixth three-hit game of the season for Nimmo. The 31-year-old has yet to be caught stealing this season as well, going a perfect 11-for-11 on steal attempts. Nimmo is having another solid season hitting .237/.352/.416 with 16 homers, 65 RBI and 64 runs scored over 103 games.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Starting Friday

    Rotowire
    Nimmo (foot) is starting in left field and batting second in Friday's series opener against the Angels. Nimmo left after the sixth inning of Wednesday's loss to the Twins after fouling a ball off his left foot. X-rays came back negative, and the 31-year-old will miss no time following the Mets' off day Thursday. Nimmo has struggled at the plate since the All-Star break, batting .111 with a .379 OPS and a 32.1 percent strikeout rate across 55 plate appearances.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Day-to-day after negative X-rays

    Rotowire
    Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said that Nimmo is day-to-day after X-rays on his left foot came back negative following his removal from Wednesday's 8-3 loss to the Twins, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports. Nimmo was lifted from the game ahead of the seventh inning after fouling a ball off the foot in the bottom of the sixth, but he's expected to be fine. The Mets have a scheduled off day Thursday, giving Nimmo some extra rest before a weekend series against the Angels.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Exits after fouling ball off foot

    Rotowire
    Nimmo was removed from Wednesday's game versus the Twins following the sixth inning after fouling a ball off his left foot, David Lennon of Newsday reports. Nimmo was in noticeable discomfort after fouling a ball off his foot in the bottom of the sixth inning. While he remained in the game to finish his plate appearance and ultimately struck out, he was then lifted in between frames. Nimmo is presumably headed for X-rays, with an update on his condition likely to be available later Wednesday. He was hitless in three at-bats before being pulled.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Sitting against left-hander

    Rotowire
    Nimmo is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus Atlanta. Southpaw Chris Sale will be on the hill for Atlanta, so Nimmo's night will begin on the bench. Jeff McNeil is getting the start in left field and Jose Iglesias will move up to the No. 2 slot in the Mets' batting order.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Nabs ninth steal

    Rotowire
    Nimmo went 0-for-3 with two walks and a stolen base in Sunday's loss to the Marlins. He also struck out three times, continuing a trend that has seen Nimmo whiff at a 32.4 percent rate in July. Those contact issues have led to a .226/.324/.419 slash line on the month, but the veteran outfielder has bolstered his fantasy value by stealing four bags in 16 games to go along with three homers, six runs and 13 RBI. Nimmo's nine steals on the season have already tied his career high.

  • Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Stays hot Thursday

    Rotowire
    Nimmo went 1-for-4 with a double, a run scored and three RBI in Thursday's win over the Nationals. The 31-year-old broke open a scoreless tie in the bottom of the fifth inning, ripping a bases-loaded double to the wall in left-center field before coming home on a J.D. Martinez knock. Nimmo has a six-game hitting streak going, batting .360 (9-for-25) during that stretch with two doubles, three homers, five runs and 10 RBI. His 62 RBI on the season leave him just seven away from establishing a new career high.
