Brandon Nimmo's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo (foot) said after the loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 1 of the National League Championship Series on Sunday night that he has been dealing with plantar fasciitis in his left foot since May. Nimmo aggravated the injured in Game 3 of the NL Division Series against the Philadelphia Phillies, but he played in Game 1 of the NLCS against the Dodgers and is starting in left field and batting third on Tuesday for Game 2 against right-handed opener Ryan Brasier. He went 0-for-3 on Sunday night and was pinch hit for in the ninth inning. The injury doesn't bother him much while hitting or throwing, but it gives him pain while running. Through Sunday's Game 1, Nimmo is hitting .241 with a home run, a .353 on-base percentage and a .698 OPS in the postseason. In his only career at-bat against Brasier, Nimmo had an RBI double.

New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a walk in their victory over the Philadelphia Phillies. Nimmo was quiet at the plate until the eighth inning when he knocked a single to left field, which brought in the eventual game-winning run. Later in that inning he was able to score off a J.D. Martinez single. Then, in the ninth, Nimmo hit his second single to bring in an additional run to increase their lead. The 31-year-old has now tallied at least one hit in every playoff game, providing a great spark at the top of the New York lineup. Nimmo remains a solid pick in DFS formats on Sunday when he will face Philadelphia southpaw Cristopher Sanchez, who carries a 3.32 ERA.

New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo had a nice day at the dish on Thursday, going 2-for-5 with a homer, a double, and three RBI in a 10-6 win over the Philadelphia Phillies. Nimmo took Taijuan Walker deep in the third with a runner on and then doubled in a run in the fourth. Despite this solid effort, the 31-year-old has been struggling since July, posting OPS's of .607, .684, and .610 in the three months since. The Mets will hope Nimmo can turn things around heading into the postseason, but for fantasy managers Nimmo isn't a must-start option outside of points leagues.

New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo (shoulder) is back in left field and is batting third on Tuesday against the Baltimore Orioles and right-hander Dean Kremer at Citi Field. A right-shoulder injury caused the Mets to pull Nimmo prematurely from Sunday's contest, and he missed the series opener against Baltimore on Monday, but Nimmo is back in there for Game 2 of the series. The 31-year-old veteran outfielder has hit for only a .229 clip (100-for-437) this year, but he does still have a useful .343 on-base percentage, 18 home runs and 11 stolen bases, not to mention 71 RBI and 70 runs. During his current three-game hitting streak, he's gone 4-for-12 (.333) with two homers, a triple and four RBI. Fantasy managers will want to get him back into their starting lineups on Tuesday, especially against a right-handed pitcher.

New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo (shoulder) is out of the starting lineup on Monday against the Baltimore Orioles at Citi Field, but the good news is that his MRI exam came back clean, according to manager Carlos Mendoza. The Mets are calling Nimmo day-to-day after he was pulled from Sunday's game early with shoulder discomfort. It's possible that the 31-year-old outfielder will be back in action as early as Game 2 of the series against the O's on Tuesday. With Nimmo out on Monday, Tyrone Taylor is in left field and will bat eighth against Orioles left-hander Trevor Rogers. Taylor has three hits in 10 career at-bats against Rogers, but he'll give DFS gamers a low ceiling because of his spot in the eight-hole. Nimmo is currently riding a three-game hitting streak but has also missed time recently due to an illness and has gone 4-for-25 (.160) with two homers, a triple, five RBI and eight strikeouts in his last seven games.
