New York Mets catcher Tomas Nido went 1-for-5 Saturday night, driving in two runs and scoring one himself. Nido has been excellent at the plate over his last 15 games, slashing .298/.340/.532 with a home run and seven RBI. As long as he's receiving regular playing time, Nido will continue to make a case that he ought to be rostered in two-catcher leagues. His days as an everyday player may be coming to an end, however, with Pete Alonso set to return from the injured list, shifting James ...

New York Mets catcher Tomas Nido hit a clutch, two-out solo home run off of Braves closer William Smithin the top of the ninth inning on Tuesday evening, leading the Mets to a 4-3 victory. It was Nido's second home run of the season, with his first coming earlier this month. In limited action during the month of May, Nido is slashing .333/.407/.625 with two home runs and four RBI over 24 at-bats. With starting catcher James McCann struggling at the plate -- he's hitting only .208 on the season ...

New York Mets catcher Tomas Nido (foot) was scratched from Friday's Grapefruit League game against Miami after having fouled a ball off of his foot during batting practice Thursday. While X-rays came back negative, Nido is currently day-to-day. The Mets don't have a clear backup plan behind James McCann should Nido be sidelined for any period of time. McCann will be New York's primary catcher for 2021, with Nido having little fantasy intrigue due to his lifetime .197 batting average and ...

We're halfway there in the baseball season, but hopefully your fantasy team is living on more than a prayer. (By Jove, that's terrible. Apologies.)Unless it's a points league, categories are starting to take more precedence at this point. Every hitter on this week's Cut List comes with a list of categories in which a need indicates greater or lesser use for the player to be on your team.Stats are through Friday, June 28. [...]

Last week at Citi Field, a member of the press overheard me mentioning that I was assigned a story about who to buy low in fantasy baseball from the New York Mets roster. Since he was a colleague of the person I was speaking with, he easily jumped in and told me to advise that you avoid all Mets in fantasy. He emphasized he was seeing the team play every day and was convinced they were all plagued in some way or another. None of them would live up to expectations, he said, and he was clearly not[...]

New York Mets manager Mickey Callaway said catcher Tomas Nido has earned more starts down the stretch. Nido is more of a defense-first backstop and is slashing only .178/.208/.260 with a home run and eight RBI in 73 at-bats for the Mets in 2018. He can continue being ignored in fantasy leagues.

The New York Mets have called up infielder Luis Guillorme, and sent catcher Tomas Nido to Triple-A Las Vegas. Guillorme, who is 23-years-old, gives the Mets some infield depth while third baseman Todd Frazier recovers from his hamstring injury on the disabled list. Guillorme is probably a more exciting name for Mets fans than he is for fantasy purposes. [...]

New York Mets catcher Travis d'Arnaud successfully underwent Tommy John surgery on Tuesday morning, according to Kristie Ackert of the New York Daily News. D'Arnaud will miss the rest of the 2018 season, though he should be fully healed up by the time 2019 rolls around. D'Arnaud's platoon-mate, Kevin Plawecki, is also out of action for a few weeks with a hand injury, resulting in the team rolling with Tomas Nido and Jose Lobaton at the position for now. However, we know the team is exploring the[...]

On Thursday, New York Mets catcher Travis d'Arnaud (elbow) was diagnosed with a partially torn UCL. There had been some thought that d'Arnaud may opt for rehab instead of Tommy John surgery, but alas, that is not the case. d'Arnaud has elected to undergo the surgery, which will sideline him for the rest of the season. Kevin Plawecki (hand) should take over the primary catching duties upon his return in two to three weeks, but in the interim, it'll be some combination of Tomas Nido and Jose Loba[...]

In light of the injury news to catcher Travis d'Arnaud, the New York Mets have recalled catcher Tomas Nido from Double-A Binghamton. Nido will presumably back up starter Kevin Plawecki, although Plawecki and d'Arnaud were getting near-equal playing time prior to d'Arnaud's injury. Nido had some buzz after a very good 2016 in Single-A, but his slash line fell off a cliff in 2017 when he moved up to Double-A. He likely won't garner much, if any, fantasy consideration, but stranger things have happ[...]
