New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo will be most impacted by the team signing George Springer in free agency. However, Nimmo is still valuable to the Mets even if he loses his starting center fielder spot.
The New York Mets are acting proactively in free agency so far. On the heels of their four-year agreement with catcher James McCann, the expectation is that the Mets will turn to acquiring another starter as well as a center fielder.
