Nimmo exited Saturday's game against the Marlins for precautionary reasons after getting hit by a pitch, Andersen Pickard of MLB Daily Dish reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Mets don't appear to be concerned about the issue, but the team has little reason not to be overly cautious this early in spring. The nature of Nimmo's minor injury is not yet clear.

Nimmo went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's loss to the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
The 26-year-old is hitting only .241 (7-for-29) in 14 games since coming off the injured list at the beginning of September, but Nimmo's 12:11 BB:K has given him a .465 OBP in that span. On the year, he's slashing .208/.369/.384 through 57 contests with six homers and 22 RBI.

Nimmo is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Dodgers, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo is getting on base at a .500 clip since his return from the injured list, but this is now three consecutive absences, all against opposing lefty starters. It may be frustrating for fantasy owners, but it makes sense that the Mets would want to limit his workload after Nimmo spent more than three months on the shelf. Juan Lagares is serving as his platoon partner.

Nimmo is out of the lineup for Friday's game versus the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo finds himself on the bench for the second straight contest and has started six of 12 games since being activated off the injured list at the start of September. The Mets may be taking it easy with the 25-year-old after he spent more than three months on the injured list with a bulging disc in his neck. Juan Lagares receives the start in center field against lefty Clayton Kershaw.

Nimmo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nationals, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
After being reinstated from the 60-day injured list Sunday, Nimmo started in center field in the first two games of the series with Washington, going 2-for-5 with a home run, double, stolen base, three walks, three RBI and two runs between the contests. Though he'll give way to Juan Lagares in the series finale, a healthy Nimmo looks on track to see the bulk of the action at the position in September.

Nimmo (neck) was activated off the 60-day injured list Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo finished up a 10-game rehab stint with Triple-A Syracuse on Friday and will make a quick turnaround to join the big-league club for the series finale. According to Deesha Thosar of the New York Daily News, the 26-year-old should be available off the bench Sunday and is expected to rejoin the starting nine Monday at Washington. Nimmo has been out since May with a bulging disc in his neck and struggled with a .200/.344/.323 slash line in 43 games prior to going down with the injury.
