EDGE Analysis
Nimmo knocked in a run with an RBI single in the fourth inning and later brought home two more during the Mets' six-run outburst in the seventh. In two games since being activated off the injured list, the 28-year-old has gone 5-for-11 (.455) with three runs scored and three RBI.

Nimmo (finger) went 3-for-6 with a pair of runs scored Saturday against the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
Back from his two-month injury absence, Nimmo was slotted into the leadoff spot and responded with a trio of singles, coming around two score after two of them. Nimmo's return adds a high on-base element to the top of the New York order and it's certainly a welcome sight for fantasy managers; Nimmo is now slashing .333/.435/.444 with a pair of steals in his 22 games this season. He can be a multi-category contributor the rest of the way if he can avoid the injury bug.

Nimmo (finger) was activated from the 10-day injured list and is batting leadoff Friday against the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old will rejoin the lineup Friday after being sidelined for two months with a sprained finger on his left hand. Nimmo will work in center field and should reclaim the everyday role there if he can stay healthy. He slashed .318/.430/.439 with a homer, five doubles, eight RBI and two stolen bases in 22 games before going down with the injury.
