Brandon Nimmo (OF, NYM) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 12% of leagues

ANALYSIS: 

Brandon Nimmo has shown plenty of promise as a big league in the past, but a .221 AVG in 2019, a high strikeout rate, and an overcrowded Mets outfield have soured Nimmo’s prospects. With injuries piling up and Yoenis Cespedes opting out, Nimmo has been thrust into an every day role as New York’s centerfielder and leadoff man, and with a monster 21% walk rate this year it’s hard to argue against Nimmo hitting atop a major league lineup. Nimmo’s eye has been his biggest strength as a big leaguer, and even though he hit .221 last season his bat was still valuable, as Nimmo maintained a .375 OBP and 114 wRC+. There may more power to come, as Nimmo has a 91 MPH average exit velocity and 42% hard hit rate this year. He’s also got a .268 xBA, which paints a much rosier picture compared to his current .217 AVG. Nimmo is best in formats that reward walks, whether it be points, OPS, or OBP, but he could also have some value in traditional 5x5 leagues if his surface numbers begin to reflect his underlying peripherals.
