Brandon Nimmo's Season Likely Over

New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo (shoulder) has an AC joint issue in his right shoulder and will have an MRI exam on Friday to determine if there is "any rotator damage," according to manager Buck Showalter. It sounds like Nimmo will not play in the final series of the 2023 season this weekend. If Nimmo has damage to his rotator cuff and requires surgery, he may not be ready for the start of next season. The 30-year-old left-handed hitter will finish his eighth season in New York with a .274/.363/.466 slash line, an .829 OPS, a career-high 24 home runs, 30 doubles, six triples, career-high 68 RBI, three stolen bases and 89 runs scored in 682 trips to the plate and 152 games.

Mets Notes: Alonso, Front Office, Carrasco

Pete Alonso’s future in Queens has been the subject of speculation ever since the first baseman was at least discussed with other teams prior to the trade deadline.  Since Alonso is a free agent after the 2024 season, there is a possibility he isn’t a long-term concern for a Mets team that is taking some…

Brandon Nimmo Battling Quad Injury, Out In Game 1

New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo (quadriceps) has been dealing with an unspecified injury near his left quadriceps muscle, which initially cost him time earlier this month. The Mets have been letting Nimmo play through the issue to an extent, but he's out of the lineup for Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Atlanta Braves. Manager Buck Showalter hopes to use Nimmo in left field for Game 2. Rafael Ortega is in center field in Game 1 and is hitting leadoff against Braves right-hander Allan Winans. Nimmo remains a solid source of runs and on-base percentage in fantasy, but he's been struggling of late, going 7-for-40 (.175) with no homers, a double, one RBI and four runs scored in 12 games (11 starts) since July 26.

Brandon Nimmo Returns To Mets Lineup

New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo (quadriceps) is back in center field and in his customary leadoff spot on Friday against the Baltimore Orioles and right-hander Dean Kremer. Nimmo missed the last three games this week due to tightness in his quadriceps muscle, but it wasn't considered very serious and he's back in there now. The 30-year-old has been cold at the plate since the All-Star break, but he should remain a strong source of on-base percentage and runs for fantasy managers while also providing the occasional home run. Nimmo is currently slashing .256/.353/.431 with 15 home runs, 47 RBI, three stolen bases and 61 runs scored through 399 at-bats in 2023. Get him back into your starting lineups in fantasy.

Brandon Nimmo Remains Out Thursday

New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo (quadriceps) remains out of the starting lineup on Thursday against the Kansas City Royals. Rafael Ortega is starting in center field for the Mets and is hitting eighth against Royals right-hander Brady Singer. Nimmo will miss his third straight game after he was scratched from Tuesday's lineup with minor quadriceps tightness. The 30-year-old doesn't think it's anything serious, though, so hopefully he'll be back in the lineup on Friday for the start of a series against the Baltimore Orioles. When he's back, Nimmo will continue to serve as the Mets' leadoff hitter the rest of the way. He's valuable in all fantasy leagues for his on-base percentage (.353) and runs scored (61), and he also has 15 home runs in 399 at-bats.

Brandon Nimmo Not Playing Against Royals

New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo (quadriceps) said he's at about 90 percent on Wednesday but won't be in the lineup due to left-quadriceps tightness. Nimmo is day-to-day and not particularly worried about the injury, so there's a good chance he'll be back in the lineup on Thursday for the series finale against the Kansas City Royals. The 30-year-old was scratched from Tuesday's lineup. Despite the Mets selling off some very valuable pieces at this year's trade deadline, Nimmo should still be an asset in most fantasy baseball leagues for his on-base ability and runs scored while hitting at the top of the Mets lineup. The center fielder is currently slashing .256/.353/.431 with 15 home runs, 47 RBI, three steals and 61 runs scored in 399 at-bats this year.

Brandon Nimmo Dealing With Quad Tightness

New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo (quadriceps) was scratched from Tuesday's starting lineup against the Kansas City Royals with quadriceps tightness, according to manager Buck Showalter. Nimmo was held out of the lineup for the first time since early June after his quadriceps muscle tightened up on him during batting practice before the game. It sounds like a day-to-day injury, but fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised if the 30-year-old is held out of Wednesday's game as a precaution. Nimmo will be looking to turn the page in August after hitting just .161 (14-for-87) with four home runs, four doubles, eight RBI and 15 runs scored in 23 games in July. Even if he doesn't run much or have a ton of power, Nimmo remains valuable in most fantasy leagues for his on-base percentage (.353) and as a source of runs (61) as an everyday player when healthy.
