The New York Mets re-signed CF Brandon Nimmo to an eight year $162 million deal tonight.
Nimmo has been a Met for the first seven years of his career since he was drafted by the franchise in 2011.
He has made a lot of strides defensively in centerfield over the course of his career.
Last season, Nimmo had the best offensive season of his career hitting .274 with 16 homers in 151 games.
He also features a terrific eye at the plate with 71 walks last year and and finished with an excellent on-base percentage of .385.
Nimmo brings a lot speed at the top of the order and is the perfect lead-off hitter.
His enthusiasm and energy is infectious and it's only fitting that he will remain a Met for years to come.
