Marcus Semien’s early-season performance for the Mets is described as subpar through the first two months of the campaign, but he shows signs of improvement in June. Both outlets characterize the start of the season as a difficult stretch for the Mets, during which Semien struggled to produce at the level expected. By June, however, Semien’s play is trending upward, with coverage focusing on a “resurgence” as he puts the earlier period behind him. The reporting emphasizes a contrast between the first part of the year and his more recent form, suggesting that his offensive output and overall contribution have improved in June compared with his earlier statistics. While details beyond the general characterization of an early slump and later rebound are not provided in the excerpts, the shared theme is that Semien’s performance improves as the season progresses into June. The articles present the change as a notable shift from the Mets’ early-season struggles involving Semien.
