Before posting a new offseason trade or free agent rumor, please read this thread


I'm changing up how we do rumors a bit to improve SEO and draw in more users. So if you come across a new rumor you want to start a thread about, do not start it in this forum!

Instead, go here: https://brewerfanatic.com/milwaukee-brewers-free-agents-trade-rumors/

Click "Add Rumor" and type up your post (with link or tweet, as you usually would).

The system will automatically post the thread into this forum with "Rumor:" prefacing the topic.

Why do this? SEO and Google's general dislike of forums. I'm working really hard to draw in new users and we're running +80-100% over what BrewerFan was getting... but we're still thousands of users a day below where we need to be to create a self-sustaining community and website.

By creating this new section of the site dedicated specifically to free agent and trade rumors, I'm able to broadcast the posts across social media much more effectively, on top of Google respecting the non-forum origin of the content.

But from the forum side of things, the difference to all of you is non-existent. I appreciate all of you pivoting on this a little to help the site draw in more users.
