They're disappointed with the way the whole thing came about. Other fans questioned the timing of the post.

They're looking to build upon the successful 2022 season they had.The New York Mets almost won the NL East. They had the same record as the Atlanta Braves to end the regular season, but lost the tie-breaker. They ended up losing to the San Diego Padres in the wild card round, but it was a step in the right direction.The New York Yankees won their division, but were taken out by the Houston Astros in the ALCS. It wasn't what they were hoping for, but Houston's pitching proved to be too much for them to handle.Both teams will come out in 2023 looking for revenge. It will be interesting to see what pieces these teams add in the off-season to make them better.
