The free daily baseball newsletter

Small Ball delivers a free daily MLB newsletter, a dedicated email for every team you follow. Every morning, you get your team's scores, complete box scores, division standings, injury updates, beat reporter news, and our signature Vibe Check, a momentum score built on real Statcast analytics like exit velocity, hard-hit rate, and expected wOBA. Whether your team won or lost, you'll know what happened, what it means, and what's next, in about two minutes.

Most sports apps blast you with scores for every team. ESPN and The Athletic bury your team under league-wide coverage. Small Ball does the opposite: pick one team or pick twelve, and every morning you get a personalized baseball update written like a beat reporter's notebook. Original daily briefs, curated headlines from local beat writers, and data pulled straight from the MLB Statcast API. No paywalls, no app to download.
