TOMÁS NIDO NEWS

Little work to begin year Nido has seven plate appearances through six games to begin the season, going 1-for-6 with a triple and a strikeout.

Impact James McCann has seen a heavy workload in the early going, but he's still been able to get plenty of rest thanks to the Mets' erratic schedule. That's left few opportunities for Nido to slot into the lineup, but the 27-year-old will be needed more often over the summer, even if his career .559 OPS in 102 big-league games doesn't give him much fantasy appeal even as a DFS punt option.

Catching in Wednesday's game Nido (foot) will catch and bat ninth for the Mets in Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against the Marlins, Deesha Thosar of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact Nido will re-enter the Mets' spring lineup for the first time since March 7 after being withheld from action for just over a week with a bruised left foot. The 26-year-old looks on track to enter the season as the top backup to No. 1 catcher James McCann.

Taking part in catching work Nido (foot) is in catcher's gear and caught a pregame warmup for Sunday's scrimmage, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.

Impact The 26-year-old was already cleared to hit after after fouling a ball off his left foot a few days ago, and it appears he's nearing a return to game action behind the plate. The injury appears to be a minor concern, so Nido's availability for Opening Day shouldn't be affected.

Ready to hit Nido (foot) is expected to be ready to hit Sunday but isn't quite ready to catch, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.

Impact Nido was scratched from Friday's lineup after fouling a ball off his foot the day before. X-rays were negative and he's already able to hit, so there's little reason to fear for his readiness for Opening Day.

Battling bruised foot Nido was scratched from the lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Marlins due to a left foot contusion, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Impact The reason for Nido's removal wasn't initially clear, but it sounds like he isn't dealing with anything serious. He fouled a ball off his foot during batting practice Thursday, but X-rays were negative. The injury shouldn't meaningfully impact his preparation for Opening Day.

Scratched from lineup Nido was scratched from the lineup for Friday's game against Miami for undisclosed reasons, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

Impact Nido is expected to back up James McCann behind the plate this season. It's not yet clear if he's dealing with something that could send him to the injured list to start the season. Non-roster invitee Caleb Joseph will start in his place Friday and could potentially earn a roster spot if Nido is indeed dealing with a long-term issue.

To IL for undisclosed reason Nido was placed on the injured list Tuesday for an undisclosed reason, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Impact The team is not specifying which IL Nido is being placed on; reading between the lines, it seems his absence could be COVID-19 related. Pat Mazeika was recalled to take his spot on the active roster.

Monster day at plate Nido went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and a grand slam in Thursday's 8-2 win over the Nationals.

Impact Nido gave the Mets a 3-1 lead with a two-run long ball off Austin Voth in the fourth inning and broke the game open an inning later with a grand slam against Seth Romero. Nido has only played in five games while serving as Wilson Ramos's backup, but with his big day Thursday, the backstop is now slashing a solid .308/.400/.385 on the campaign.

Gets rare start Tuesday Nido got the start behind the plate Tuesday and hit ninth, going 1-for-4 with two strikeouts.

Impact Wilson Ramos was still in the lineup but at DH, allowing Nido to make only his third start of the season. The 26-year-old has gone 3-for-10 in those starts, but as long as Ramos is healthy, playing time will be scarce for his backup.

Back in camp Ramos (personal) returned to camp Tuesday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Impact A personal matter had kept the catcher away from the team for three days. That brief delay shouldn't significantly affect Ramos' readiness for Friday's Opening Day game against the Braves. Tomas Nido lines up as the team's primary backup should Ramos be unable to play.
