Kiyoshi Mio-Imagn Images While some New York Mets have pondered the idea of a Mike Trout trade, a notable team insider explained on Friday why it is extremely unlikely. The Mets have played better over the last week. They have won four of their last six and back-to-back series ahead of their game on Friday night against the Arizona Diamondbacks .

Nevertheless, they head into the weekend with an extremely disappointing 14-23 record. There are a variety of issues that can be pointed at for the team’s poor results. However, the performance of a very expensive batting order has stunned many.

Yes, injuries to players like Juan Soto , Francisco Lindor , and Jorge Polanco have been debilitating. But their hitting should be far better than it has been. Injuries have nothing to do with the underwhelming play of Bo Bichette , Francisco Alvarez, and Marcus Semien .
