Nimmo went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Tuesday's win over the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo led the Mets with three hits Tuesday, though he only crossed the plate once and couldn't drive in any runs on a night when the Mets scored eight. It was Nimmo's first three-hit effort since the very beginning of the month, and he's gone without an RBI over his last five games. Nimmo has driven in a career-best 72 runs this year but his batting average is down significantly compared to the last few seasons. For the year, he's slashing .230/.341/.410 with 18 homers, 72 runs scored, 11 steals and a 68:133 BB:K in 542 plate appearances.

Nimmo (shoulder) is batting third and playing left field Tuesday against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo was removed from Sunday's game with right shoulder discomfort and was held out of the starting nine for Monday's series opener. However, he'll return to the lineup for Tuesday's game, patrolling left field. Nimmo has homered in two of his last three games, collecting four RBI and four runs scored during that stretch.

Nimmo was removed from Sunday's game against the Marlins due to shoulder discomfort, David Lennon of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis

Nimmo went 2-for-5 with a three-run homer and an additional run scored in Friday's 7-3 win against Miami.
EDGE Analysis
After missing Thursday's game to due illness, the 31-year-old outfielder tattooed a 390-foot, three-run homer off reliever George Soriano for his first long ball of the second half. Perhaps this performance can spur on Nimmo, who entered this game with a .140 (12-for-86) batting average in 23 games since the All-Star break. Overall, the nine-year vet is now slashing .228/.343/.405 with 17 homers, 68 runs scored and 70 RBI across 508 plate appearances this season.

Nimmo (illness) is batting third and playing left field Friday against Miami.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo didn't play in Thursday's game against Oakland due to the stomach flu, but he's feeling well enough to suit up and start Friday's series opener. The left fielder is 0-for-13 with four walks, a run scored and an RBI across his last four games.

Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said that Nimmo is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Athletics due to a case of the stomach flu, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mendoza noted that Nimmo was unable to get much sleep Wednesday night due to the ailment, so the Mets will hold him out of the lineup as they wrap up their series against Oakland with a day game. Jeff McNeil will pick up a start in the outfield in place of Nimmo, who has gone 3-for-32 with 11 strikeouts over his last nine starts to bring his batting average down to .226 for the season.

Nimmo is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Nimmo received a day off last Thursday in Colorado after he had gone 2-for-16 over his previous four starts, but the veteran outfielder doesn't seem to have benefited much from the break. While starting in each of the Mets' ensuing five games following the day off, Nimmo went 1-for-16 with four walks against six strikeouts. Nimmo doesn't appear to be in danger of losing hold of his everyday role in the New York outfield, but his .171/.271/.244 slash line since the beginning of August could nonetheless put him at risk of being held out of the lineup more often.
