Nimmo (hamstring) said Wednesday that he's ahead of schedule in his recovery, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo was placed on the 10-day IL with a right hamstring strain Saturday, and he's already resumed jogging. The outfielder didn't say whether he expects to return after spending 10 days on the shelf, but he's trending toward a relatively brief absence.

Nimmo was placed on the 10-day injured list with a right hamstring strain Saturday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo exited the first game of the day with what was originally called right hamstring tightness. The diagnosis has since been updated to a strain, an injury serious enough to sideline him for at least 10 days. Whether or not he'll miss more than 10 days remains to be seen. Travis Blankenhorn was called up to take his place on the roster.

Nimmo left the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Nationals with right hamstring tightness, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo was busy early, notching two hits and a stolen base in the first inning and a half of Saturday's matinee, but that production came at a cost. With every team having a couple extra roster spots in September, the Mets can probably afford to wait a few days and gauge Nimmo's progress before making a call on his roster status.

Nimmo left the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Nationals in the second inning, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
It was not obvious what was ailing Nimmo, but he was replaced in center field by Albert Almora. Perhaps he was injured on his successful steal attempt in the top of the second. Nimmo's availability for the nightcap is uncertain. He went 2-for-2 with an RBI and a run scored prior to exiting.

Nimmo went 0-for-1 with two walks, two hit-by-pitches and a stolen base in Sunday's 9-4 win over Washington.
EDGE Analysis
That's getting on base four times the hard way, as both Washington starter Erick Fedde and reliever Sam Clay plunked Nimmo in the contest. The outfielder added his fourth stolen base of the year, but he wasn't able to score a run for all his trouble. He's slashing .287/.411/.393 with four home runs, 20 RBI, 37 runs scored and 14 doubles through 300 plate appearances.

Nimmo went 2-for-3 with two runs and two walks in a 7-2 triumph against the Dodgers on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo walked and scored in the first inning, walked again in the second, singled in the fifth and singled and scored in the ninth to reach base four times for the first time since July 18. The productive outing extended the outfielder's hitting streak to a modest five games, a stretch that's seen Nimmo go 9-for-22 and bump his average from .275 to .288.

Nimmo went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a double and a stolen base in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
The outfielder was responsible for the Mets' first run, knocking a solo shot off Dodgers ace Max Scherzer in the fifth inning. Nimmo hasn't provided much in the way of counting stats this year with four homers, 20 RBI, 35 runs scored and two stolen bases. He's added 14 doubles and a .283/.401/.399 slash line across 268 plate appearances. He has a meager two long balls, five RBI and nine runs scored through 20 games in August.

Nimmo went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run during Game 1 of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Nationals. He then went 0-for-4 in Game 2.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo's three-run shot during the second inning proved to be the difference as the Mets beat the Nationals 4-1 in the first game of the day. It was the 28-year-old's first home run and only his second RBI since he last went deep July 17, which was a span of 21 games. He has a .286/.411/.405 slash line with three long balls, 13 doubles, 18 RBI, 30 runs and two stolen bases in 55 games this season.

Nimmo is not starting Thursday's game against the Marlins, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old gets the afternoon off before the Mets head to Philadelphia for a three-game set. Nimmo has cooled off a bit since his post-injury surge, hitting .233 with six walks and just one extra-base hit in his last 10 games. Albert Almora is starting in center field and batting eighth Thursday.
