Brandon Nimmo burst onto the scene with a vengeance in the first half, rocketing to a 1.004 OPS through the end of May. But he's crashed to earth just as emphatically this summer, posting a .667 OPS with a hair-raising 34.3% strikeout rate in July.
Even through his July struggles, the third-year New York Mets' outfielder has managed a 15.2% walk rate, 24.4% line-drive rate, and shrewd 20.8% reach rate, meaning he's not nearly as lost at the plate as his surface numbers seem to indicate. With his FanDuel salary settling into the low $3,000s, the seemingly struggling outfielder could make for a profitable play in the coming week.
