Fantasy Impact:
Nimmo has been eased into action this spring, making just his second start after dealing with lingering plantar fasciitis in his left foot and recent right knee soreness. While his presence in the lineup is a positive sign, he’ll need to prove he can handle outfield reps without issue before Opening Day. If his knee holds up, Nimmo should be locked into his usual leadoff role for the Mets to start the season.
