Top 100 MLB.com Blogs

blogs-top100header

It’s hard to believe we are entering the 10th season of blogging at MLB.com! Now comes the annual tip of the hat to all of the best blogs in our community, or at least the ones who had what it took to draw the largest followings. Congratulations to everyone who made the Top 100 MLB.com Blogs list, based on page views from Jan. 1-Dec. 31, 2013. If you’re on the list, make sure you add your Top 100 MLB.com Blogs badge to your sidebar, with the link to this post. That goes for you active players, front-office crews, player wives, groundskeepers, fans, photogs, broadcasters and Idols like Scotty McCreery. The coming year promises to be even better, so a big Thank You to everyone in our community — whether you’re a veteran or a rookie.

    We’ve had a great run at Cream City Cables, making the top 100 every year since our inaugural season. Alas, the time has come to move on from MLBlogs.com, largely due to the obnoxious ad placement and inflexibility in appearance. Thanks for reading everyone, and good luck to all the rest of you MLBloggers in the future 🙂

    o my family, friends, readers, and supporters:

    Due to your consistent and unwavering loyalty I once again made MLB.com’s top 100 blogs for 2013. These words cannot convey the degree of honor and gratitude that I have toward all of you. I am humbled to realize how much people enjoy my writing and my rants. I am thankful to God that he gave me the gift to express my love for the Angels through my writing. I am truly thankful to all of you. I’m curious to see how high I can make this website climb, thanks to your support I jumped 41 spots this year. My goal is to crack the top 25 next year, but I can’t do it without your support, again thank you. Go Angels!

    Thrilled and completely honored to be on this list in my first full year blogging. #76 + #24 (Trevor Plouffe) = MLBlogs Top 100.

    Thanks, Mark! The more and more I pay attention to this blog, the more I explore and feel like there is a great baseblog community.

    Congrats to everyone on the lists and have a great 2014! (How about a party at my place in July?!… Target Field. All-Star Game. Be there.)

    Wanted to leave a note of inspiration for those wanting to scale the mountain and get to the top of the Fan Blog list. In January 2008 I was the 28th Most Viewed page on MLBlogs.com. Sure over the past few years(2011-2013) I have sat at #2 and risen to #1 at times, but I worked at my craft, took some amazing photos and got to know some of the Rays players and staff off the field to bring me more info and access. Patience, honing the writing and visiting other blogs and commenting get you noticed, followers and eventually to the Top…….I proud of what I have done over the years on MLBlogs.com, but I’m more proud of how far we have risen the bar as a blogging community and the great content that has been produced.. If you get to the top, I will not push you away but hold out a hand and welcome you…..that is what teammates do…..support each other..

    Big thanks to all the Hoppers Fan readers for putting us back on the Top 100 MLB.com Blogs list again this year — that’s 2 years in a row! We came in at #68 — moving up the charts from the #78 spot we captured last year. Like I said last year, it’s great to see that a blog devoted to a Single-A Minor League team in North Carolina is as popular as blogs devoted to Major League teams. From Jordan and me, to all of you, thank you! We’re excited to see what 2014 brings — just 40 days until pitchers and catchers report!

    Congrats to everyone on the list. Considering Outside Pitch MLB LLC became an official MLB.com blogs in late August, I’d say 27th place isn’t too shabby. Are the numbers for December coming out?

    Humbled that we were on the list again for 2013 and moved up to #17. Is there a list for just December, we had our best month ever then. Congrats to all who made it!

    I think I’ve about topped out at #4, what with Hample, Rays Renegade, and an entire continent above me. I’ll certainly continue to strive for bigger and better though! Thank you so much for reading, if you’ve ever been inclined to do so. And if you haven’t…stop by! My annual countdown to Opening Day is about to get underway!

    Well Mark,
    I am back. Not sure of the extent, but will be throwing curves, some nasty sliders and maybe even catch a few people napping with a change-up post. Thank you again to MLB Advanced Media, yourself and all the bloggers and viewers of my little spot of happiness over the years. Coming back strong, lean, but hopefully not too mean……Congrats again everyone and do not forget to get your Top 100 Badge!
