Nimmo was injured on an awkward slide in the fourth inning of a Grapefruit League game against the Marlins last week with the Mets leading, 6-1. It appeared Nimmo caught his cleats and hurt his right ankle on the slide during an inning-ending double play. He limped slowly off the field.

He underwent imaging the next day which revealed sprains. He said Sunday it was a low-grade ankle and knee sprain, which he described as the best-case scenario.

Nimmo said Sunday, per SNY: “In my heart of hearts, yeah, I do think [I’ll be ready for Opening Day]. Obviously, we have to see how it goes, but yeah, right now I definitely think that I’ll be ready for Opening Day.”
