Marcus Semien hasn't played an inning for the New York Mets, but he's already making a positive impression with his new club and fan base. Following the November 24 trade that sent Semien to Queens and Brandon Nimmo to the Texas Rangers, Semien spoke with SNY and pretty much put on a clinic of how to execute a perfect interview to introduce yourself to a new franchise and its fans.
In the interview, Semien checked all of the right boxes. He talked about his love of playing in New York City, his leadership, his respect for Nimmo, his respect for his new teammates, and his high expectations for himself moving forward as a Met.
