Mets’ second baseman Marcus Semien’s season just got derailed with a Grade 3 hip flexor tear, sidelining him for 4-6 weeks — and forcing a spotlight on rookie Ronny Mauricio, who’s now getting his shot to prove he can be the answer at second base. With Semien’s defense slipping and production fading, Mauricio’s limited but promising flashes from last year could be his moment to shine. Meanwhile, Brett Baty’s struggles at the plate make this a make-or-break opportunity for Mauricio to seize regular at-bats and impress before the trade deadline.
