report
“Bo Bichette, who was brought in because he can hit, and Marcus Semien, who was brought in for his glove but who has been a great hitter in the past, have not hit.”
MISLEADING
While multiple sources confirm that Bo Bichette and Marcus Semien were brought to the Mets and are highly regarded hitters/players, the evidence does not confirm that they 'have not hit' in the context of the claim. The sources discuss their hitting ability and past performance, but do not state they have failed to hit.
