Biweekly Lineup Changes (Mon-Thurs, Fri-Sun)
Especially with the shortened season, Yahoo Fantasy Baseball should offer a biweekly lineup change option, like some sites already do. Daily changes is too much for our league. But our usual weekly lineup changes is too infrequent, especially in a shortened season. Teams often place players on the IL with little advance warning on Monday after lineups lock, and that turns into an empty week. That would be mitigated with biweekly lineup changes. We may like that new set up that it would be a fixture in future years too.

Add the accent above the ‘e’ to Jose Altuve’s first name?
I know it sounds trivial, but a Spanish player in my league admires Jose Altuve, and he’s devalued him because he feels insulted the accent mark is not there. He’s made his case by pointing out that Jose Berrios, Jose Abreu and others all have the accent mark on their ‘e’s, but for some reason Jose Altuve does not. Please make this one minor change if possible.
680th rankedThanks for bringing this up to us. Our engineers are working on reflecting correct accuracy for accent marks in the game.

680th rankedHello Chase,
Thanks for your feedback.
Are you referring to when editing your pre-draft rankings or when using the pre-draft rankings during a draft?
Looking forward to your response.

7day, 14day, 30day for Team Stats
Allow us to see our total team stats the same way we do with individual players with the 7-day, 14-day, 30-day, season option. This way we can track how our teams are performing week by week.

Keep league open all year
Keep the leagues open all year. Yes, close for 2-3 days for maintenance but otherwise, allow leagues to draft, add players, look at stats, etc for the whole year.
28th rankedThanks for all your feedback, James. These are features we will look into adding in the offseason.

Keeper leagues, be able to view all transactions on one page and allow export to Excel
even modifying the URL from the number to all
My league players who were picked up as FA count for a different salary than those drafted, If i could export all the FA pickups then my formula could look at those, then the draft results, to calculate keeper costs. Right now I cannot so it is a manual process.63rd ranked -
Filters in individual player stats not working
The last few weeks, the filter for player stats isn't working. For instance, filtering for a single team in the split hitter stats, or for Batter vs Pitcher. This problem is happening in Internet Explorer and Firefox btw.

Bug with the Player List
When you look at batters in the player list and sort by something that isn't a pitcher column, and then try to look at pitchers, the system returns a "no players found" message. The same is true if you sort pitchers by something that isn't a batter column and then look at batters.
The system would be friendlier if you would fix this. Thanks!
487th rankedThank you for bringing this to our attention. I have sent this information to our engineering team to fix.

Carry "notes to self" over to the next year.
I guess i can always go back and copy, but in a keeper league it is much easier just to have them still be there.

Expanded Commish Ohtani/Future 2-Way Player Options
So we realize you guys decided to make Ohtani 2 separate players. Many people are obviously upset about this (myself included). I understand that either choice will ruffle some feathers, so why not make a commissioner option to treat Ohtani as 1 or 2 players?
Commissioner Option 1: Treat him as 2 separate players, both take up a roster spot, etc. the way you guys said it would be this year.
Commissioner Option 2: Have him in the system as 2 players but he would act as 1 player. For example, under this option, pitcher Ohtani and hitter Ohtani only…

Pre-draft Rankings
Allow pre-draft rankings to be sorted by xrank in addition to default rankings. It makes no sense that this is not an option. In addition, add a search bar so that you can search for a player instead of having to scroll up and down constantly. The interface on the pre-rank page is barbaric.

need a way to contact yahoo without paying for it when a postion cannot be filled to due system malfunction.
When a position is disabled because of yahoo have a way to correct this immediately By the time they contact you your playing one man short and the stats lost are never corrected. Have a way without paying for a fix or contact them so it can be fixed and then credit all stats lost back to your team.

Add More NA spots
NA spots are currently capped at 10. I'd like to see the maximum raised to 15 or 20 to allow keeper/dynasty leagues to have more in-depth minor league possibilities. Yahoo has done a good job of expanding the player pool, but when you can only roster 10 NA, it caps these newly added players usage.

Message/Chat Board Needs to Feel Like Social Media Site
The Message Board has become a waste of space because it's not easily accessible, readable or usable. Posts and comments should be easily scrollable, mobile friendly, and look and feel like Facebook/Instagram/Twitter. Get rid of "topics" and duplicate what the most popular social media sites in the world do to encourage messaging, chatting, and communicating!

Player Pool
Please add more prospects to the player pool. Keeper leagues often have very deep leagues and having more prospects available would be very beneficial. Players like Wander Franco SS TB is not available, and he is a top 50 prospect.

Allow Commissioners to designate keepers all season
I'm in the 10th year of my dynasty league. I would like to be able to manually designate players as Keepers throughout the season. Other managers will then be able to see the K next to a keeper to avoid confusion when adding or trading for players. Currently I have to manually maintain a list which is very time consuming.
Quick example... Managers pick their keepers pre-draft, those players have the "K". We hold draft, all newly drafted players (all keepers by my leagues rules) don't receive K. Mass confusion all season and offseason.
Thank you!

message board
I think previous message board posts made by other users in all Yahoo Fantasy Sports Leagues should be viewable by all members. I noticed that from the seasons 2011 to 2017 I can not view the messages posted by other users. I do not know why this feature was changed but I think for league history purposes it should be made viewable once again, especially for commissioners. If Yahoo Fantasy Sports wants leagues to last for years members should be able to go back and see what other member wrote on the message board, particularly when Yahoo allows us to…
