This Has Been Prospects Month 2016

Wow, what a month. I love the month of February and I especially love the month of February when we get blessed with a 29^th day like we did in 2016. It allows an extra day of research, an extra day of teaching and an extra day of Prospects Month! I love having Prospects Month in February because when most blogs are strapped for content or simply shoveling snow while the fans are hungry for news we get to bring you content all day long on a daily basis. I also love it that we don’t hide our material behind a pay-wall or anything like that like some other premium sites, which FYI it is worth the subscription I’m just saying in general some of us can’t afford it or justify it. I’m just grateful that we have people that come to the site, read our work and like what we do. Thank you for that.

So another month is gone and so is another Prospects Month here on the blog. Now we can turn all of our attention to Spring Training and the upcoming 2016 season. Let’s get to it. This has been Prospects Month 2016 and we hope you enjoyed it. 

Thank You!

The 2015 season is just about officially over with the Kansas City Royals and the New York Mets done fighting it out in the World Series. With the season just about officially in the record books I wanted to take the time out of my day to thank you, the Greedy Pinstripes readers and fans, for another great and successful season.

On the blog we had many accomplishments this season including surpassing the 1,000,000 views mark and we couldn’t have done it without you. For that, thank you.

While the season may end for the players and their teams and while many blogs will take much of the winter off we won’t be joining them here at TGP. We’ll continue to pump out plentiful and quality content all offseason long because we know you enjoy it. Prospects Month will return in February. The Greedy Pinstripes grind will continue thanks to you.

Thank you. 

Marketable Twitter Milestones & Thank You’s

Whether or not this milestone for the blog is marketable or not is up for debate and it may go to an arbitrator or not but I am going to make the executive decision and say that it is. If you weren’t following along on Sunday night when the New York Yankees were facing off with, and subsequently sweeping, the Boston Red Sox you missed out on a bit of a milestone for the blog. We eclipsed the 3,000 follower mark in the 8^th inning of the contest due to nothing less than hard work and determination. We didn’t pay for followers, we never paid for SEO help on the blog, nothing like that. We worked hard, we interacted with you guys and enjoyed every second of it.

This is truly a humbling experience for me because honestly I didn’t even want a blog. I wanted a sports forum. Long story short sports forums are dying and the blog is flourishing as it approaches the big 1,000,000 view mark and honestly I still can’t believe it. I have no words to truly put how I am feeling down in print as I write this and all I can say is thank you about a million times. I truly do appreciate each and every one of you and everything you do with and for the blog. You make it worth doing every single day and because of everyone reading this, every commenter on the site, everyone who sends me emails, tweets me, etc. this has all become possible.

The best part about it though is this is just the beginning and the sky is the limit. So excuse me while I break my arm patting myself, Bryan Van Dusen who also owns the site and pushed for this and anyone and everyone who has ever posted on the site or written for the site. They deserve it. We deserve it. We, the writers, the owners and the readers, deserve this. Thank you.

You Guys are Absolutely Killing It

I wanted to start this Tuesday off by giving you guys and girls, everyone who is reading this and everyone who has ever read our content, a big thank you from the bottom of my heart. You guys are absolutely killing it right now and we’re just a week’s worth of games into the season. Views are through the roof on the site and our Twitter notifications is becoming a full time job and I cannot say how eternally grateful and thankful I am for every single one of them and every single one of you. Thank you.

Let’s keep this going and let’s have a great season not only on the field but on the site, on Twitter and in our comments section. There are no better fans in the world than Yankees fans, fact not opinion, and you guys and girls cement this in my mind every single day. Again, thank you.
