Tim, where are all the testimonials? There used to be like 37 of them. I’m not convinced enough yet by this post and need to read more testimonials.
I thought you’d never ask!

Trying to click on those red links but it’s not taking me anywhere. Using the app on an Android.
benefits say, other perks. like what?
A couple examples would be giveaways of baseball books and the possibility of playing with me, Steve, and Connor in the MLBTR fantasy league.
I’m thinking about a subscription. This is one of the best baseball sites on the Web. I like the comment sections of each article. Readers opinions are a great read. It’s kind of like the old letters to the editor in newspapers. I’d like to read a further description of benefits from purchasing a subscription.
I am a subscriber and I love it. The reader mailbox is cool. Plus the exclusive chats. I like the badge as well. Its 3 bucks a month not 30… Its less than a happy meal! This website brings me a lot of joy and I will be a lifetime supporter.
I was a subscriber!
It’s not worth it!
You were expecting a foot rub?
So now you are a freeloader?
As I’ve said all along, I think this is a great site and I’d gladly pay to remove ads. The other perks don’t interest me much. Why don’t you offer an ad-free subscription for say, 9.99 annually?
Every time I make this comment I get attacked and called cheap and get told how $30 isn’t a lot. Don’t bother. I don’t care what folks think about how I choose to spend my money. What I care about is MLB Rumors getting some additional revenue from folks like me. I can’t imagine that the revenue from me being fed ads is more that $10 annually.
ad block plus is free.
That may be true, but what I want is to contribute a bit to the site for the service I want. I enjoy the site but the ads are a constant annoyance.
i don’t see any ads
I feel that going ad-free is worth the subscription price by itself. FanGraphs charges $60 per year to go ad-free, with no other perks, and I think we’re relatively comparable websites.
Thanks for the reply Tim. Love your site, and happy to contribute my $10 to block ads when/if you allow it. At $30 I choose to stay free.
@ those commenting about it being $3, not $30… Geez, read what I wrote. It is $30 annually. Or $36 if paid monthly.
My sex life has improved dramatically since I subscribed.
There might be a correlation/causation issue here…
This is my honest opinion, if you can afford to support, and you visit this website multiple times a day, you should subscribe. $3 greenbacks a month is less than a subscription to a local newspaper. Its cheaper than a latte. Its cheaper than NETFLIX. Its half the price of a taco combo. Its barely more than a two dollar CENSORED!
A two dollar CENSORED??? What part of Texas?????
As I said, each time I make the comment, someone calls me cheap. I’m not cheap. I just want a cafeteria menu that lets me buy only what I want.
You are welcome to your opinion, Texas Hulk. And I have my own. And we all know what they say about opinions.
I won’t comment on this in the future, as Tim has responded directly. @Tim, I disagree and you now know why. The client comments and the business decides. I’m ok with that, and I’ll stay free.
The biggest benefit is the chats, I think. In the weekly chats that are open to everyone my questions rarely get answered. In the subscriber chats it’s basically a given I’ll get an answer. So it’s nice to know in the back of my mind that if I ever have a MLBTR question it’ll be answered within a week either in the mailbag or chat.
Still waiting on the weekly/daily MLB betting picks for subscribers so I can make that $30 back. jk
