Just in time for the offseason, our iPhone app has received an upgrade! It is listed as Baseball Trade Rumors (Version 2.0) in the app store and costs $2.99. You can search the store or just click this link. Version 1.0 of the app was been described as "beyond belief" by legendary journalist Peter Gammons.
By popular demand, we've added the ability to filter the news page by teams or transactions for Version 2.0. We've revamped the refresh functionality to use the pull-down method, and a "last updated" timestamp has been added. We've also completely redesigned the graphics and made other minor improvements. Those who purchased the app previously can download the new version for free.
The bread and butter of the app is still the customizable push notifications. By default it sends an alert to your iPhone for all transactions, and you can also add alerts for any combination of players, teams, and leagues you desire. If you want to be the first to know where Prince Fielder is headed, who the Yankees are looking at, or anything else hot stove-related, this app can accommodate you. The headlines page of the app shows our 40 latest posts, no banner ads, easily refreshed. Individual posts with hyperlinks can be viewed, of course. You can also leave comments on MLBTradeRumors.com through the app. Check it out today!
