He has been one of the few players fans can depend on to produce on a regular basis. He is hitting .301 with four home runs and 21 RBIs to go along with solid defense. There were those who probably did a spit take when learning of Nimmo’s eight-year, $162 million contract signing with New York this past offseason, but he has been the glue holding this .500 club together.</p><p>Of course, he is just one man and will need help in order for the Mets to meet their<a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mets-news-new-york-sets-insane-299-8-million-mlb-record-previously-set-dodgers" rel="noopener"> hefty expectations</a>. A <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mets-news-kodai-senga-looking-to-keep-up-with-legends-justin-verlander-max-scherzer" rel="noopener">sharp Kodai Senga</a> is a good place to start. The Japanese right-hander recovered nicely after his guy bailed him out and threw seven shutout innings versus Philadelphia, allowing just one hit and striking out nine. The team is desperate for that type of dominating pitching performance, ranking 25th in baseball with a 4.78 ERA heading into the day.</p><p>If players live up to their contracts and expectations like Nimmo and Senga did Tuesday night, the Mets will quickly right this shaky vessel and steer firmly into divisional contention.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

To make matters worse, they were just swept by the Milwaukee Brewers in brutal fashion, getting outscored 26-6 in the process. For a team that just spent a boatload of money this past offseason to make them a legitimate contender, it’s simply unacceptable.</p><p>Following a walk-off loss to the Brew Crew Wednesday, Francisco Lindor and Brandon Nimmo dropped <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/04/05/mets-need-to-leave-ugly-opening-week-on-road-behind-them/" rel="noopener">honest assessments</a> on the brutal three-game set. Via Jon Heyman of The NY Post:</p><p>“Obviously we have to play better,” Nimmo said. “They outplayed us in every facet. We just got flat out beat all three days.”</p><p>“They outhit us. They outpitched us. They outran us,” Lindor voiced. “They played better than us. So hats off to them.”</p><p>However, Lindor believes the Mets can quickly turn it around and get back on track:</p><p>“I believe in this team,” Lindor asserted. “I believe in every guy. I think we have what it takes. We have the “it’ factor. We have to continue to push and move forward. We have a great team. They outplayed us. Tomorrow we’ve got to come back and put on a better show than we have the past couple of days.”</p><p>New York was held scoreless in the first two contests of the Milwaukee Series, losing 10-0 and 9-0. Sure, the Brewers do tend to rely on their pitching, but the star power in this Mets lineup simply can’t be shutout in back-to-back games.</p><p>The injury bug continues to bite them, too. Reliever Tommy Hunter is dealing with back spasms, while <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mets-news-omar-narvaez-injury-amid-justin-verlander-edwin-diaz-absences" rel="noopener">Omar Narvaez exited early</a> Wednesday after tweaking his calf.</p><p>The Mets begin a four-game set at home against the Miami Marlins Thursday, but Game 1 is currently postponed due to rain.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Perhaps he will be ready for the season opener on March 30th against the Miami Marlins. Whether he is or not, it’s a relief that Nimmo isn’t dealing with a serious issue, especially after the Mets already lost <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mets-news-edwin-diaz-season-ending-injury-diagnosis-wbc" rel="noopener">their closer Edwin Diaz</a> to a season-ending knee injury at the World Baseball Classic.</p><p>The former first-round pick is coming off one of his best big league seasons to date, slashing .274 with 16 home runs and 64 RBI. He also played a career-high 151 games. Injuries have proven to be a problem for Brandon Nimmo but after signing a new extension this winter, New York clearly has the belief he can stay healthy and produce in the coming years.</p><p>Nimmo already <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mets-news-brandon-nimmo-play-opening-day-injury" rel="noopener">said he expects</a> to be patrolling center field on Opening Day and at this rate, that could very well happen. The Mets will need him to put up more impressive numbers in 2023 if they’re going to be a contender come postseason time. Considering the free agency spending, everyone is expecting NY to be one of the best teams in the Majors. The only thing that can hold them back is health.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
