Starling Marte\u2019s transition to his new role hasn\u2019t been as seamless as he and the Mets might have hoped.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Reduced to part-time status for the first time in his career, Marte, who is sharing DH duties with Jesse Winker, has an anemic .184\/.273\/.316 slash line in 44 plate appearances after going 1-for-4 in Saturday\u2019s 3-0 win over the Cardinals.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After 12 seasons as a starter, the veteran outfielder is learning to deal with the reduced workload.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s something I continue to work on every day,\u201d Marte told The Post through an interpreter. \u201cNo player loves being in this type of role, but at the same time, this is the way it has been presented to me, and I think, in order to have success at the plate, you have to go out there. You have to go and try to take advantage of whatever opportunity you can get.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Mets tried to trade Marte last winter after Juan Soto arrived on a record 15-year contract worth $765 million, but a deal never materialized. <\/p>\n
It left the 36-year-old outfielder back with the Mets to finish out the final year of his contract \u2014 with $20 million owed to him this season \u2014 in a job share with Winker.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In each of the past two seasons, Marte missed significant stretches with injuries. His best season with the Mets was 2022, in which he produced an .814 OPS for a team that won 101 games.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Marte was asked if he still believed it\u2019s possible for that previous version of himself to reemerge.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI think everything is based on routine and the hard work that you put in,\u201d Marte said. \u201cThe success I had back earlier in my career was because I was playing every day. I think if I have more results and I am able to get into that lineup more, I will be able to get back to the player I once was.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
On Saturday, manager Carlos Mendoza recalled a conversation he had with Marte in spring training in which he told the outfielder the transition wouldn\u2019t be easy. <\/p>\n
Mendoza suggested to Marte that he speak with team special advisor Carlos Beltr\u00e1n during the last homestand about the challenges a player faces going from full time to part time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201c[Beltr\u00e1n] went through the same transition,\u201d Mendoza said. \u201cOnce you get to that stage of your career, you become kind of like a part-time player. But those are very important players on a championship team. It\u2019s not easy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201c[Marte] has been an elite player, everyday player, having success. Now, he\u2019s having to go every two, every three days and come off the bench and face a pretty good reliever \u2014 that\u2019s not an easy role. But he\u2019ll be all right. He\u2019s adjusting well. He gets it, and he\u2019s going to be a big part of this team moving forward.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Marte missed two months last season rehabbing a bone bruise in his right knee. His reps in spring training were limited because of lingering knee issues, but he says he now feels strong physically.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The former Gold Glove winner said he\u2019s still expecting to receive an occasional start in the outfield.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Mets\u2019 early success has certainly helped Marte form a positive view of the situation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI think we have been playing a phenomenal brand of baseball,\u201d he said. \u201cWe go out there every day and we help each other out, we support each other when we\u2019re in that dugout and preparing for games. The pitching staff has been tremendous. They go out there each and every day and compete. I think that\u2019s what you want from a team that is going to compete to try to win a championship.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
