HAPPY BIRTHDAY MLBTR

I discovered the black background when I was a freshman in high school, and have been a daily reader ever since. Congrats Tim and staff!

I’ve been checking this site out for around 8 years. I am local in Lombard and check your site at least twice a day. Keep up the great work!

Great story!
I have been an avid reader and poster for a couple years. Your site is one of the half dozen or so I check out on a daily basis. Keep up the good work!

This is awesome! Congrats. I still remember back in the day when you’d be in the comments arguing and, to be honest, a bit of a Cubs homer.
I doubt even you imagined turning MLBTR into what it is today. You have one if the most impressive writing teams of any site I frequent. It’s truly remarkable and you should be proud! Here’s to another ten years!

Happy birthday MLBTR! Been a reader since a friend linked me back in early 2009, and been commenting since sometime in the middle of 2010. I love how big you all have made this, Tim 😀

Tim…I want to thank you for this daily must-see site. I remember when it first went up, too. It has been a great 10 years.

Although I didn’t start in the early, early days, I remember the white on black layout well. Back then things were very Chicago centric (primarily Cubs). Maybe not so from a coverage aspect but definitely from a viewership. So happy that the site has expanded and readers from every team come here for information.
The quality of your work Tim and team is top notch. I see the site quoted frequently on most other baseball sites. You certainly have come a long way.

I found this site about 9 years ago. I’ve been glued to it ever since. congrats on 10 years and to many more.

Thanks so much for making my days so interesting over the years. Many (50) years ago I remember having to have a subscription to The Sporting News to get even a fraction of the kind of information here. Keep up the wonderful work!

Thanks for making it so easy to follow baseball year round! MLBTR has become one of my daily routines now.

It has been a pleasure to work on a couple of projects with you guys… and (perhaps just as importantly for me) to go on to your site every July 31st afternoon (a tradition!) and all throughout the year. There is something about MLBTR that is addicting and fun. Almost as fun as actually watching my Tigers live. Thank You!
Congratulations!

9 year reader here, rarely a day goes by that I don’t check in. Thanks and happy birthday!
My favorite thing I’ve ever seen on this website is the comment section of the post when the Tigers signed Prince Fielder. Everyone was completely dumbfounded and it led to the funniest string of baseball jokes I’ve ever seen.

Tim, MLBTraderumors has become one of my Top 5 sites (all genres) and I visit several times a day. Congrats to you and the team as your status in the industry grows and grows. I enjoyed reading MLBTR backstory. I bookmarked you in 06- and of all the headlines over the years, the biggest jaw dropper was “Nationals acquire Jayson Werth for 7 years, 126 million”. You guys help me get through the off season, so my request is more chats, and mailbag posts. Otherwise, keep up the great work!

Congrats on being successful doing what you love. I found MLBTR in about 2007 and have checked it at least twice a day, sometimes a dozen times, every day since. I even check the site more than my local blog spot for my Orioles. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I found a site devoted to baseball with short stories, updates, and rumors for every single team. One of those oh my god why didn’t i think of that moments. You guys do a great job day in and day out and that’s why even in the offseason I still rarely miss a post. I hope one day I can even contribute, I can’t imagine anything better than writing about baseball every day!.

Have been following this site for as long as I can remember. Tim – – You’re a class act all the way, super professional, and real boon to us baseball nerds. Thanks for everything all along the way!

Congratulations Tim & thanks for the flashback.

I’ve been reading for ten years now, considering back than baseball trade rumors were something you would have to search long and hard for throughout the sports pages. The obvious domain name caught my eye and I’m happy to say I’ve been a daily visitor for ten years straight. I am still jealous to this day that you, Tim, have in fact the greatest job in the world. Congrats!

Woohoo, congrats! And thanks for all the rumors. 🙂

I’m only 17 but I remember my dad showing me the site when I was 12 and when I got my first iPod touch I downloaded it and have been reading ever since. No other website compares!

Wow! I’ve been following this site everyday since 2007 and remember going on flower delivery routes with my dad talking endlessly about Santana. I remember all the crazy rumors that were going around. We were Red Sox fans and both really wanted him. I remember saying that I didn’t care if they traded Lester, just not Bucholz.

Congratulations to all the team behinds MLB Trade rumors. This site has become the obligatory visit at least twice a day to be up to date of what happens around the league. So keep going far to give us, as always, the latest hot news just coming out of the stove.

I’ve been reading MLBTR about as long as there’s been an MLBTR, and in the last couple years it’s become pretty much the only place where I get my baseball news anymore.

Happy 10th! So many well deserved comments from loyal fans. MLBTR is the best for reliable “rumors” and essential background stats/info. Thanks, Tim and all.
