The Sporting News Palm Pre app is atrociously designed, but highly functional. And if you’re a baseball fan you’ll find it very easy to overlook the aesthetics and focus on the data. And it’s really quite good at serving up data. It offers scores and statistics across leagues, and you can also see your favorite teams’ statistics, standings, and schedules. There’s also a provision for you to create your very own fantasy team in the app, but I’m not sure how many will actually use this feature.
You can set certain teams as your favorites, which allows one-click access to the teams data from the app’s home page, as well as basic scores and statistics available right from the app home screen. The app offers a balanced combination of baseball statistics and news, and there’s really nothing missing from the application in terms of features. The design could do with some improvement and maybe we’ll see updates that address this issue.
