Mets slugger Brandon Nimmo detailed his father's special morning routine in a recent article.
“He gets up in the morning and he’ll just type my name into the news,” Nimmo said of his father, Ron, who's a 64-year-old retired CPA.
“I have learned that it’s probably best that I let find out about that stuff himself, not for me to bother him,” Ron said. “I mean, he’s got a lot of people with a lot of input into what he should do and when he should do it and how he should do it.” Nimmo has been in the Mets' organization his entire professional baseball career. He was drafted out of high school by New York with the No. 13 overall pick of the 2011 Draft.Ron recalls his son revealing back then: “The first day I was here, were all my friend. The second day, they were all telling me how worthless I was and the Mets wasted their money.”
