Three hits in loss Nimmo went 3-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Tuesday's loss to the Cubs.

Impact The Mets only mustered up six hits for the evening and Nimmo accounted for half of them. He's hit safely now in five straight games and has six multi-hit games this month but has just six extra-base hits to show for it. For the year, he's slashing .301/.381/.430 with four homers, 19 RBI, 27 runs and a 22:40 BB:K over 216 plate appearances as the Mets' main leadoff man.

Three hits in Thursday's win Nimmo went 3-for-5 with a double and an RBI in Thursday's win over the Giants.

Impact The 30-year-old center fielder is on fire at the plate, producing six multi-hit performances over the last eight games and batting .528 (19-for-36) during that stretch with five doubles, a homer, six runs and eight RBI. About the only thing Nimmo isn't doing at the moment is drawing walks at his usual rate, posting a 3:4 BB:K in those eight contests, but given the damage he's doing when he swings the bat that's understandable. Nimmo's on pace to score triple-digit runs for the second straight season, and he's entrenched in the leadoff spot for the Mets.

Impact Nimmo put on a remarkable offensive display on Wednesday, recording five hits for the second time in his career.

Nimmo is off to an impressive start to the year, slashing .349/.481/.476 with 10 RBI and 12 runs scored through 63 plate appearances and has knocked multiple hits in six of his last seven games.

Leads walk parade Friday Nimmo went 0-for-1 with four walks, two runs scored and a stolen base in Friday's 9-3 win over the Marlins.

Impact The Mets drew 12 free passes in total on the afternoon, but Nimmo was the only one to walk more than twice. The patient leadoff hitter is batting only .227 (5-for-22) through eight games but has a .455 OBP thanks to a 10:3 BB:K, adding three runs, three RBI and two steals to his ledger.

Three hits in Tuesday's loss Nimmo went 3-for-4 in Tuesday's loss to the Brewers.

Impact All three hits were singles, and the rest of the Mets' lineup managed only five other knocks in a 9-0 loss. Nimmo is doing his job at the top of the order, going 5-for-16 (.313) through six games with a 6:1 BB:K, but the early-season struggles of the hitters behind him have led to the 30-year-old crossing the plate only once so far. Expect that to change, and quickly, given that he scored a career-high 102 runs in 2022.

Sitting vs. southpaw Nimmo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Impact Nimmo will get Sunday off with southpaw Trevor Rogers on the mound for the Marlins. Tommy Pham is leading off and playing center, while Tim Locastro gets the start in right. Over his fist three games, Nimmo has hit .222/.429/.333 over 14 plate appearances while picking up three RBI and a stolen base.

Drives in three Thursday Nimmo went 1-for-3 with a walk, a double, a run scored and three RBI in an Opening Day win over the Marlins.

Impact His third-inning sacrifice fly got the Mets on the board, and Nimmo then played hero in the seventh with a two-run double that broke open a 3-3 tie and put New York in the lead for good. The veteran outfielder has posted an OBP over .400 in three of the last five seasons and set career highs in 2022 with 30 doubles, 64 RBI and 102 runs, but it's his ability to stay healthy that will go the longest way toward determining whether he's able to build on last year's strong campaign.
