I think the result for the index is pretty simple. Indians/Nationals/Reds are the meh teams very likely to get a 0 score on a -5~5 scale. That's why they have low scores.

Yankees might be hated by a lot of people, but they are also loved by a lot of people. Yankees probably got a lot of positive scores from people who don't care about baseball at all. It just averaged to be higher than those meh teams.
