How came a 15-year-old injury to bite “Brandon Nimmo: I” annoyed “

Port st. Lucie, fla. – Just like Mets Outfielder Brandon Nimmo began to overcome his plantar fasciitis, pain and persistent knee pain took his place

NIMMO has settled with reporters in digging before equality 3-3 Friday against Cardinals St. Louis at Clover Park. There, he revealed that the problems of “meniscus and cartilage” related to ACL reconstruction 15 years ago contribute to his current knee problems.

“(My knee has fun),” Nimo said. “But for a certain reason, this type of annoying him and I do not really know exactly what the exact mechanism was. I can guess, but we just try to calm him down. We try to offer a little help to be ready for the opening day, so we are now. “

Nimo does not know exactly what he did to upset his knee. His “best guess” is that it happened while trying to “regulate” something to try to “find the last 10%” of his cradle.

“With 20-20 Hindsight, I would like to have not done that,” said Nimmo.

Nimmo played in the loss of Thursday with 3-2 compared to Boston Red Sox. It has been his first game since the knee began to disturb and receive a gel injection.

He reported that he feels “good” after the match, saying that he is not ready to push him to the end. Instead, Nimo says he is around “80%” – he was at 91% at the beginning of the camp, when he passed over his foot.

The manager of Mets, Carlos Mendoza, is not yet worried. When the gel injection begins to be in force, it is different for everyone, so play the waiting and view game.

“Talking to the coaches, this could turn the corner on any day,” Mendoza said. “Let the medicine, the blow in. Sometimes it takes 7-10 days, sometimes it takes two weeks. ”

Meanwhile, Nimmo will continue to get sticks like a designated one waits to be in line again on Saturday against Washington Nationals at Cacti Park.

“I try to get small earnings every day, even if this is 2 or 3%,” said Nimo. “The hope is that tomorrow … that percentage is a little higher and that I am able to continue to push this before.

“Any steps back at this moment would be at the expense of the opening day. So, trying to be careful about it. “
