About Baseball Prospectus

Baseball Prospectus is an American baseball analytics and media organization best known for BaseballProspectus.com and its annual season preview books. Founded in 1996, it pioneered many influential sabermetric tools and publishes in‑depth analysis, projections, and commentary for MLB teams, media, fantasy players, and dedicated fans. Its offerings include daily articles, prospect rankings, advanced statistics, and proprietary projection systems like PECOTA.

A charge from “BASEBALLPRO” or “BASEBALLPRO 858‑256‑6716 NJUS” on a card statement is very likely tied to a Baseball Prospectus subscription or digital product purchase, with the descriptor shortened to “BASEBALLPRO” and the phone number matching their published contact line. The charge may be for a recurring premium website membership, a fantasy/PECOTA subscription, or a one‑time purchase of an annual book or related digital content. Depending on timing, users might also see trial‑to‑paid conversions or renewal charges around their billing anniversary date.

To verify the charge, customers should log into their Baseball Prospectus account using the email address associated with their purchase and review the subscription or order history, as well as any invoices sent via email. If the transaction is not recognized, the next step is to contact Baseball Prospectus directly using the support form or the phone number listed on their contact page (which matches the 858‑256‑6716 descriptor) to confirm what product was billed and on which account. Cardholders who still cannot identify the transaction after checking accounts and contacting support should reach out to their bank or card issuer to dispute or block future charges.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see a charge from BASEBALLPRO 858-256-6716 on my statement?

This descriptor corresponds to Baseball Prospectus. The abbreviated “BASEBALLPRO” name and the phone number 858‑256‑6716 match Baseball Prospectus’ published contact information, and the charge is typically for a website subscription, fantasy/PECOTA tools, or related baseball analysis products purchased through baseballprospectus.com.

What types of subscriptions or products does Baseball Prospectus usually bill for?

Baseball Prospectus commonly bills for recurring premium website subscriptions, fantasy/PECOTA tool access, and occasionally for books or digital publications purchased through their site. Premium subscriptions renew automatically each billing cycle (monthly or annually), which will appear as repeat charges under a BASEBALLPRO descriptor.

How can I cancel my Baseball Prospectus subscription to stop future BASEBALLPRO charges?

Log into your Baseball Prospectus account on baseballprospectus.com using the email tied to your subscription, go to your account or billing/subscription settings, and follow the prompts to cancel auto‑renewal. After cancellation, your access generally continues until the end of the current paid period, and no further renewal charges should post.

I don’t recognize this BASEBALLPRO charge; how can I confirm which account it belongs to?

First, search all your email addresses for messages from Baseball Prospectus or baseballprospectus.com, looking for order confirmations or subscription receipts. If you still cannot identify the account, use the contact form or phone number on the Baseball Prospectus website and provide the transaction date, amount, and last four digits of the card so they can locate the associated account.

Does Baseball Prospectus place small temporary or $0 authorization holds?

Like many online services, Baseball Prospectus’ payment processor may place a small temporary authorization when you update a card or start a trial to verify the payment method. These may appear briefly as pending or low‑value BASEBALLPRO charges and should fall off automatically without posting as final transactions.

How do refunds work for Baseball Prospectus subscriptions or purchases?

Refund policies can vary by product and promotion, but generally subscriptions are sold as non‑refundable periods. If you believe you were billed in error or experienced an issue with access, contact Baseball Prospectus support promptly with your order details; they can review eligibility for a partial or full refund or adjust your subscription end date where appropriate.

Can a family member’s Baseball Prospectus subscription cause a BASEBALLPRO charge on my card?

Yes. If a family member or roommate used your card to purchase or renew a Baseball Prospectus subscription, the resulting charge would still appear under the BASEBALLPRO descriptor. Check with anyone who has access to your card and review any shared Baseball Prospectus or fantasy baseball accounts to confirm whether they initiated the purchase.
