Heading to injured list Nimmo (finger) was placed on the 10-day injured list after Game 1 of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Cardinals, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Impact The 28-year-old hadn't returned to the field since suffering a bone bruise on his left index finger Saturday, and he'll now make his way to the injured list. Nimmo could rejoin the team late next week if he only spends the 10-day minimum on the shelf, though it's unclear how long he's expected to be sidelined. Kevin Pillar is starting in Game 2 and figures to see the bulk of the time in center field during his absence for the Mets.

Out of Sunday's lineup Nimmo (finger) is not in the lineup Sunday against the Phillies, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Impact The 28-year-old suffered a bruised finger during Saturday's game and appeared to be in considerable pain, so it's not a major surprise to see him sitting out the series finale. Nimmo had X-rays come back negative after leaving the game and should be considered day-to-day. Manager Luis Rojas said prior to Sunday's game that he remains optimistic Nimmo will avoid a trip to the 10-day injured list, according to Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
