A Thank You To Baseball America Readers
Welcome to another MiLB Opening Day.
As I get older, the baseball season seems to move faster every year. I look up and suddenly we’re at the all-star break. Blink and the postseason will be here.
But it never grows old. There’s so much we’ll learn. And so much we’ll be able share with you about the game we love.
The only reason we can do this is because we are crowdfunded by our readers. When you subscribe to Baseball America or get the magazine or purchase our Prospect Handbook, you allow us to pay our staff to cover all levels of the game. You are funding us to send writers to key college series, top high school matchups, spring training, MiLB and MLB games.
Without you all, none of this would be possible. You are what has given me my dream job for more than 20 years now. You’re what allows a group of diehard fans to spend 365 days a year thinking about, watching and reporting about baseball. In return, we want to make sure we work exceptionally hard to provide the content that fellow baseball fans love.
If you’re not currently one of our subscribers and you want to join us, we’d love to have you join the club. As a celebration of Opening Day, we’re offering a rare discount: 30% off on any annual subscription. Just use the code MiLB at checkout.
And for those who already subscribe, once again thank you. Enjoy Opening Day and every day of the baseball season that follows.

Yankees shortstop George Lombard Jr. climbing 50 spots
A potential Pirates star cracking the top 50
