Brandon Nimmo On The Bench Tuesday For Game 1
3 years agoNew York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo isn't starting the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Atlanta Braves. Right-hander Charlie Morton is on the mound for Atlanta. The 29-year-old will head to the bench with Travis Jankowski starting in center field and batting leadoff instead. Nimmo is batting .254 with a .369 on-base percentage and three home runs in 85 plate appearances this season. Jankowski, meanwhile, is hitting .318 with a .400 on-base percentage and a pair of stolen bases in 25 plate appearances. He's worth a look as a low-cost DFS sleeper out of the leadoff spot on Tuesday.
