Marcus Semien Maintains "Everyday" Mindset Amidst Workload Talks

New Mets second baseman Marcus Semien, 35, is approaching spring training with an "everyday mindset," despite the team considering managing his workload. Known for his durability, Semien played all 162 games in 2023, setting an MLB record for plate appearances (835), and won a Gold Glove in 2025. While his offensive OPS has dipped below .700 in the last two seasons, his defensive metrics remain strong. Manager Carlos Mendoza will monitor him, but Semien is focused on playing and building rapport with new teammates.
