Nimmo (illness) will start in left field and bat sixth in Thursday's game against the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo was out of the lineup the previous two days because he was under the weather, although he did appear as a pinch hitter Wednesday. He's feeling well enough to give it a go in Thursday's series finale.

Nimmo is dealing with an illness but may be available off the bench Tuesday against the Diamondbacks, Laura Albanese of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo is getting fluids and could be an option to pinch hit against Arizona. He was reportedly battling the illness during his two-homer, nine-RBI explosion Monday against the Nationals. Jose Azocar is starting in left field Tuesday versus Diamondbacks lefty Eduardo Rodriguez.

EDGE Analysis
With this career day, Nimmo tied Carlos Delgado for most single-game RBI in Mets franchise history at nine. Nimmo opened by slugging a three-run homer off reliever Colin Poche in the sixth inning.

The New York outfielder is now slashing .218/.261/.418 across 119 plate appearances.

Nimmo went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo snapped the shutout in the sixth inning when he took J.T. Ginn deep to right field for a solo homer, the Mets' only run of the game. Nimmo has started the season slashing .208/.259/.472 with four home runs and nine RBI but zero steals across 58 plate appearances.

Nimmo went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run in Monday's 10-4 win over Miami.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo put the finishing touches on Monday's rout with a two-run shot in the sixth inning to push the Mets in front 10-1. The veteran outfielder was limited in spring training due to a knee issue, but each of his four regular-season appearances have come in left field thus far, and Nimmo shouldn't struggle for RBI opportunities in 2025 while batting in the heart of New York's star-studded lineup.

Nimmo (knee) will start in left field and will bat second in Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo made his spring debut in left field back on Feb. 28, but after experiencing right knee soreness coming out of that contest, he was held out of action for nearly two weeks before returning to the lineup as a designated hitter Thursday. He made another start at DH on Saturday, and with Nimmo having thus far experienced no setbacks with his knee, the Mets appear to be comfortable with testing him out in left field again. The Mets could still look to manage Nimmo's workload in the outfield early on during the season, but the fact that he's available to play defense again in Grapefruit League play suggests that he's in line to make the Opening Day roster.

Nimmo (knee) said Friday he should be available to serve as the Mets' designated hitter on Opening Day but may not be ready to play the outfield, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The outfielder had a delayed start to camp while finishing up his recovery from the plantar fasciitis that plagued him in 2024, and some soreness in his right knee cropped up in early March. Nimmo estimated that he's feeling about 80 percent healthy after returning to the lineup as a DH on Thursday, and his status is worth monitoring during the final stretch before Opening Day.
