Brandon Nimmo had two hits, two walks and two runs scored Wednesday against the White Sox.
In spite of his OBP struggles this season, Nimmo was elevated to the second spot in the Mets lineup after the team decided to drop Juan Soto and Pete Alonso to third and fourth. It’s not necessarily a great thing for his fantasy value, since hitting fourth below those two guys was an excellent situation, too, but if it leads to some more patience at the plate from Nimmo, it might pay off for the Mets. He came into today with a .274 OBP.
