EDGE Analysis
Nimmo landed on the 10-day injured list earlier Wednesday with what was originally labeled as neck stiffness, but the MRI clarified the injury. The 26-year-old will rest for a few days in hopes the inflammation subsides. Carlos Gomez and J.D. Davis are likely to see increased chances in the outfield given the numerous injuries to the Mets' outfield.
