Having trouble keeping up with your favorite MLB team? Looking for a new way to stay up to date with all the latest trade information? Follow these tips, and never miss a blockbuster deal again.

Hit the appstore

In this day and age, if you do not have a smartphone, you lack the instant connection to everything sports-related at your fingertips. In the Android Market, as well the AppStore, countless apps exist for baseball-specific news, including dedicated ESPN apps that can update you immediately with breaking news. With varying prices and some available for free, you never have to worry about missing out on that blockbuster trade again.

Make sure you buy an app from a reputable source. Some may look like the real deal but install malware instead. Read reviews to find out if the source is legitimate.

Sign up for text alerts

No smartphone? No problem. Head to your favorite team's website, and sign up for text alerts sent directly to your phone. You can customize the alerts to update you during games, send you news about the team or remind you of what channel to tune into for the next outing. Standard text messaging rates likely apply here, so make sure you have a plan that allows you to receive these texts.

Email alerts

If you do not have your phone on you at all times, but you spend your days glued to your email, signing up for email alerts about your favorite MLB team makes the most sense. Head on over to their website, and simply type in your email address, and you never have to miss that breaking trade news ever again.

Staying up to date on all the latest sports news can seem like an overwhelming task, but, with the wide variety of technology available, you never have to hear your sports news secondhand again.
