Nimmo was called up from Triple-A Las Vegas on Saturday, Matt Ehalt of the Bergen Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Mets have decided to hit the reset button on Michael Conforto and give Nimmo, the 13th overall pick in 2011, his first taste of major league action. Nimmo has hit .328/.409/.508 with five home runs with Triple-A Las Vegas this season, matching his home run total from all of last season (104 games between three affiliates). However, he's never hit more than 10 home runs in a season, and the 23-year-old has been caught on the basepaths more times than he's been successful this year (5-for-12). Expectations should be kept in check, but Nimmo's advanced approach and plate discipline should carry him early on in his career.
