Mets' Marcus Semien: Scuffling to begin year
Semien went 0-for-4 with a walk and two strikeouts in Wednesday's extra-innings loss to the Cardinals.
The 35-year-old second baseman missed chances to play hero for the Mets in both the ninth and 11th innings, recording the final out with runners in scoring position each time. Semien is struggling to find a rhythm at the plate to begin his first season in New York, going 2-for-20 with a double, two RBI and a 3:8 BB:K through six games, but his still-excellent defense will keep him in an everyday role for now and provide him with plenty of leash to figure things out.
