Nido isn't starting Saturday against the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

Nido started in the last three games and went 2-for-9 with an RBI, a walk and two strikeouts. Patrick Mazeika will take over behind the plate and bat ninth Saturday.

Nido went 2-for-3 with a double, a run scored and two RBI in Wednesday's 10-5 loss to the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

His two-run two-bagger in the second inning gave the Mets an early 2-1 lead, but it didn't last long. Nido has been alternating starts with James McCann over the last week as both backstops struggle to build some momentum at the plate, and even after Wednesday's effort, Nido has a .214/.207/.250 slash line through 28 plate appearances.

Nido isn't included in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.

EDGE Analysis

Nido picked up his fourth start of the season Saturday, going 0-for-2 with two strikeouts in the Mets' 3-2 loss. No. 1 backstop James McCann will be back behind plate for the series finale, resulting in Nido moving back into his typical bench role. Nido has gone 3-for-13 at the dish through his four starts.

Nido is batting .417 (10-for-24) with a double and a homer this spring.

EDGE Analysis

The Mets' backup catcher has only a .566 OPS in his big-league career, so don't expect him to maintain that level of offense once the regular season begins. Nido will likely need a James McCann injury to see significant playing time in 2022, but his spot on the roster at least seems secure for now with top prospect Francisco Alvarez still a couple years away from the majors.

The Mets placed Nido on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a sprained left thumb, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The same injury has previously forced Nido to the shelf on two other occasions in recent weeks, and it'll now result in his 2021 campaign coming to an end with five games still left on the Mets' schedule. New York called up Patrick Mazeika from Triple-A Syracuse in a corresponding move, and he'll serve as the No. 2 catcher behind James McCann the rest of the way. Nido concludes the 2021 campaign with a .222/.261/.327 slash line, three home runs, one stolen base, 16 runs and 13 RBI in 161 plate appearances over 58 games.

Nido (thumb) will be reinstated from the 10-day injured list by the Mets on Tuesday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nido suffered a sprained thumb in late August and recently went 3-for-7 with two RBI and a run across two rehab games. The 27-year-old will mainly serve as a backup to James McCann, but he's starting at catcher and batting eighth in Tuesday's game against the Cardinals, Deesha Thosar of the New York Daily News reports.

Nido (thumb) rejoined his teammates Monday but won't be activated until Tuesday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nido is nearly ready to return from the thumb sprained which has sidelined him for all of September, but he evidently needs one more day before he's ready to go. He'll serve as James McCann's backup behind the plate down the stretch.

Nido (thumb) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nido will return to game action nearly two weeks after he was placed on the injured list due to a left thumb sprain. Since the 27-year-old hasn't been sidelined too long, he'll likely be considered to rejoin the major-league club early next week.

Nido (thumb) could begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Syracuse this weekend, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nido has been on the injured list since Aug. 31, so he's only expected to require a few rehab appearances before he's cleared to be activated. The team hasn't indicated what day the catcher will report to the minor-league club, but he'll be in the mix to rejoin the Mets sometime next week.

Nido was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a left thumb sprain, Mike Mayer of Metsmerized reports.

EDGE Analysis

He had just returned from the 10-day injured list Friday from the exact same injury, so he may have reaggravated his thumb in that first game back. Chance Sisco was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse to serve as the backup catcher behind Patrick Mazeika until James McCann (back) returns from the IL.
