Conference realignment

Main article: 2021–2026 NCAA conference realignment

One school transitioned from NCAA Division II to Division I after the 2025 season.

• New Haven in the Division II Northeast-10 Conference. The school started a transition to Division I in July 2025 as a new member of the Northeast Conference.

A total of five baseball-sponsoring schools changed conferences after the 2025 season.

• Delaware and Missouri State joined Conference USA.
• Grand Canyon joined the Mountain West Conference.
• Seattle joined the West Coast Conference.
• UMass joined the Mid-American Conference.

One school dropped its program.

• Horizon League member Purdue Fort Wayne dropped baseball after the 2025 season.

One school reinstated its program.

• Atlantic 10 Conference member La Salle reinstated its baseball program for the 2026 season.

The 2026 season is the last for 22 Division I schools in their current baseball conferences, as well as the last before West Florida starts its transition from Division II to Division I. It is also Oregon State's last as a Division I independent. This does not include the three baseball-sponsoring schools of the Western Athletic Conference that will remain members when that conference rebrands as the United Athletic Conference in July 2026.
