What's the current standard for getting mlb data into a database? I used to use Baseball On a Stick (which accessed the old gameday data) but that doesn't work now. I found "mlbdata" which accesses the mlb API but I can't figure out how to make it put stuff into a database. Is there a good option?

  Python wrapper for MLB Stats API

I'm not aware of any services that load it directly into a database for you. There is the MLB-StatsAPI python wrapper which makes the API calls a bit more straightforward. Using something like that to retrieve the data is probably one of the easiest ways to pull the data you want. You can then write it to a csv, database table, ect with a pretty simple script. There's tons of documentation online of how to do this. You could do this in Python or whatever language you prefer.
