MLB has a bad baseball problem that's only getting worse

Baseball isn't the only sport facing attendance woes. Hell Nascar may fold as this rate. Football clearly is suffering, and not just because of kneeling. Professional wrestling ratings are barely half on a good week compared to twenty years ago. Yet they just got a huge new TV contract because as bad as their ratings and attendance have become, it's still better than their peers. I think looking too focused on the quality of the baseball being played may be missing the bigger picture.

One of these things you mentioned is not a sport. It's a scripted episodic serial.

Yes but a live one with both live attendance and TV considerations. In that regard it's far more like sports than other non-sports programming.
