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 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.

EDGE Analysis

Nimmo reached base on a single and stole a base in the top of the first inning Wednesday, but he was replaced defensively during the bottom half of the frame. The severity of the issue isn't yet clear, but he should tentatively be considered day-to-day ahead of Friday's series opener in Oakland.

Nimmo was removed in the bottom of the first inning of Wednesday's game against the Brewers with an apparent leg injury, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

In the top of the first inning, Nimmo reached on a single and then recorded a stolen base. He was out at his usual spot in center field to begin the bottom of the first inning, but after starter Taijuan Walker faced three hitters, Nimmo asked out of the contest while walking gingerly off the field. He may have tweaked something while recording the stolen base, which was his third in 11 games after he hadn't recorded a single steal through his first 131 contests of the season. Expect the Mets to provide an update on Nimmo's condition later Wednesday.
