Nimmo went 1-for-5 with a grand slam, an additional run and a walk in Thursday's extra-inning loss to Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo gave the Mets their first lead with a grand slam off Spencer Strider in the second inning, but Atlanta eventually prevailed in a 13-10 slugfest. The grand slam was the first of Nimmo's career and his fifth long ball this season. The outfielder isn't known for his power and has never hit more than 17 homers in a campaign, though he ranks in the 86th percentile among big-league hitters in average exit velocity this season.

Nimmo went 2-for-3 with a solo homer, a double and a walk in Friday's win over Colorado.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo's solo shot in the fourth inning proved to be the difference maker in the 1-0 win Friday. It was his third home run of the season and he's up to 12 extra-base knocks after the strong performance. After a slow start, Nimmo has gone 31-for-87 (.356) over the last 21 games, raising his season OPS to .875.

Nimmo went 3-for-5 with a double and an RBI in Thursday's win over the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
The 30-year-old center fielder is on fire at the plate, producing six multi-hit performances over the last eight games and batting .528 (19-for-36) during that stretch with five doubles, a homer, six runs and eight RBI. About the only thing Nimmo isn't doing at the moment is drawing walks at his usual rate, posting a 3:4 BB:K in those eight contests, but given the damage he's doing when he swings the bat that's understandable. Nimmo's on pace to score triple-digit runs for the second straight season, and he's entrenched in the leadoff spot for the Mets.

Nimmo went 5-for-5 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's win over the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo put on a remarkable offensive display on Wednesday, recording five hits for the second time in his career. The veteran outfielder singled in his first at-bat to begin the game before taking Noah Syndergaard deep for a two-run blast in the fifth. Nimmo is off to an impressive start to the year, slashing .349/.481/.476 with 10 RBI and 12 runs scored through 63 plate appearances and has knocked multiple hits in six of his last seven games.

Nimmo went 0-for-1 with four walks, two runs scored and a stolen base in Friday's 9-3 win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
The Mets drew 12 free passes in total on the afternoon, but Nimmo was the only one to walk more than twice. The patient leadoff hitter is batting only .227 (5-for-22) through eight games but has a .455 OBP thanks to a 10:3 BB:K, adding three runs, three RBI and two steals to his ledger.
