While it is true that Brandon Nimmo got a heart-related scare when the New York Mets‘ medical staff prompted management to pull him from a spring training game’s lineup to undergo screening and related tests, it turns out that he only has a “bigger heart” than the average player, figuratively speaking.
Scare aside, the abbreviated spring training – because of concerns about the coronavirus, or COVID-19 – was a very successful one for Nimmo, who happens to have some competition now that the Mets decided to bring stellar defensive center fielder Jake Marisnick into the fold.
