Injuries play a factor as they do for all teams so that should be taken out of the equation.
I think the owners need to really take a long look at their organization and see where the opportunities are.
GM? Manager? Coaches? Scouting? etc.
And many say trade certain players. Well another team would need or want them and what can you get back.
It is hard to watch either team but the Mets are the hardest to watch and their line up is the least scariest in the game today

It starts and ends with Lindor and his massive contract. You can't have a 230 hitter batting third and expect to have a great lineup. Lindor can't hit elite or even good pitching, especially left handed. The Mets analytics department did a poor job in evaluating Lindor long term. Lindor feasted on the poor teams in the AL Central which made his numbers misleading.
