Nimmo has left Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Marlins with an apparent injury, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nimmo appeared to jam his right knee while sliding into second base attempting to break up a double play, and he looked to be in serious pain before he limped off the field with an athletic trainer as well as Mets manager Buck Showalter. The outfielder will all but assuredly go in for further testing and there should be an update on his status well before Saturday.

Nimmo is starting in center field and batting leadoff in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Nimmo will see his first game action of spring training Sunday, as the Mets held him back a bit to open camp despite being in good health. The 29-year-old finally stayed healthy in 2022 and played in a career-high 151 games, and he delivered a .274/.367/.433 slash line with 16 home runs, 64 RBI and 102 runs. New York rewarded him with an eight-year, $162 million contract in December, and he's locked in as the club's center fielder for the foreseeable future.

Nimmo will make his Grapefruit League debut Sunday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nimmo hasn't appeared in a spring game yet, but the outfielder isn't missing time for injury, but instead it's an effort to build up energy and durability after a career-high 673 plate appearances. The outfielder signed an eight-year, $162 million extension in the offseason, and he'll hit at or near the top of the lineup for the Mets in 2023.

Nimmo is likely to make his Grapefruit League debut this weekend, Pat Ragazzo of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nimmo hasn't appeared in a game yet this spring, but he's simply building up energy and durability for the regular season after logging a huge number of plate appearances in 2022. The 29-year-old outfielder and leadoff man re-upped with the Mets this winter on an eight-year, $162 million deal.

Nimmo is expected to make his Grapefruit League debut this week, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nimmo has been eased along in Mets camp this spring, but there are no injury concerns at the moment. The 29-year-old re-upped with New York in December on an eight-year, $162 million pact.

Nimmo likely won't see action in Grapefruit League games until next weekend, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 29-year-old center fielder is healthy to begin camp, but given his injury history, the Mets are taking a cautious approach with him. Nimmo returned to New York on an eight-year, $162 million contract over the winter and figures to slot back in at the top of the order -- a role that led to a career-high 102 runs in 2022 -- thanks to his .385 career OBP.

Nimmo signed an eight-year, $162 million contract with the Mets on Thursday, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Mets selected Nimmo 13th overall in the 2011 MLB Draft, and he's been with the team since. Barring a trade, this deal makes it extremely likely that he'll play his entire career with the club. Nimmo has compiled a 134 wRC+ and .362 wOBA across seven big-league seasons, which highlight his carrying skills of getting on base and making consistent contact. He's also a strong defensive center fielder and will be locked into the lineup at that position in 2023.

Nimmo isn't starting Wednesday against Washington.

EDGE Analysis

Nimmo has been on a tear at the plate recently, hitting .500 with two home runs, two doubles, six RBI, three runs, a walk and three strikeouts over the last five games. However, he'll get a breather while Terrance Gore starts in center field and bats ninth during Wednesday's regular-season finale.

Nimmo went 6-for-8 with two doubles, two home runs and six RBI across both games of Tuesday's doubleheader sweep of the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

The center fielder had three hits and three RBI in each game, going yard in the fourth inning of the matinee before leading off the nightcap with his 16th homer of the year. Nimmo's been on fire to close out the regular season, slashing .400/.484/.582 over his last 15 games with two steals, 11 RBI and 14 runs, although Tuesday's homers were his first during that blistering stretch.

Nimmo went 2-for-4 with a walk and three runs scored in Sunday's win over the A's.

EDGE Analysis

The 29-year-old outfielder continues a late-season surge from the leadoff spot, crossing the plate in the third, fourth and eighth innings in a 13-4 rout. Nimmo has four multi-hit performances in his last seven starts, batting .393 (11-for-28) over that stretch with two steals, five RBI and nine runs scored, and he's now three runs shy of reaching 100 in a season for the first time in his career.
