MLB Opening Day 2022: 5 questions as Yankees, Mets begin championship hunts

It’s Opening Day, practically both Christmas and Easter combined for any baseball fan.

For Mets and Yankees fans, given how loud and intense New York City is (in a good way), this means the excitement is double. For one day in the spring, both sets of fans have matching enthusiasm and anticipation for what the next several months may bring.

The 2022 season is no exception. Mets owner Steve Cohen was aggressive in free agency, landing dynamic outfielder Starling Marte and future Hall-of-Famer Max Scherzer. They also have star shortstop Francisco Lindor and can look forward to another great year from Pete Alonso.
