Outs for Batters
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE have this added into the scoring! Currently, we are penalized -.5 per ab. Imho, it would make more sense to be penalized per out than AB. Ty!

Please move the Trade Deadline to an earlier date in Pro leagues
Teams that are essentially eliminated from the playoffs are sending significantly better players to some teams when they have no real chance of competing(finishing 3rd or better of making the playoffs).
Make the trade deadline earlier so if they want to forfeit, they will have to give up a better opportunity at making the playoffs or cashing in a roto league.

For rotisserie leagues, make scoring/standings update in real time instead of overnight
Currently, rotisserie leagues have their scoring/standings updated each night - that means you can't see how much progress you're making in a given day in real time. Scoring/stats should update in real time, or at least more periodically than daily. We have live stats for our teams, but we cannot see how everyone else is doing for that day.

Please Add Stolen Base Attempts (SBA) as a Category!
Please!
In order for SB% to be a stat it has to already calculate SBAs with SBs so i'm sure this is a simple addition to the settings because SBAs are exist within the SB% calculation. We have 2 months before opening day I really feel like there's no reason it can't be added since SB% is already a stat.
BTW, CBS and ESPN do not have SBAs as a setting either so you could separate yourself by being the first main fantasy baseball site to do it - and again with SB% already there I cannot see how this…

Problem With Batting Avg Calculations in My League
We have 3 teams tied with .255 batting average. All 3 have different H/AB, but all 3 were given 4 pts for BA in the standings. The BAs aren't calculated out past the 3rd decimal place like they used to be. Oddly, there are 2 teams with .247 batting avg, and those ARE calculated past the 3rd decimal. Please fix!

Stat Category "WINS"
Stat Category "WINS" as in Did Player Team Win. We get focused on stats of individuals, we often don't see which team wins the game. This places more emphasis that. This is good for picking players on the winning teams and a manager needs to weigh the value of a slugger on a losing team. Challenges make the game better.

I have not been credited for my strikeouts for days and been stuck at 1250... and other areas of my roto team...
this is only area I could find to email my displeasure that I have been losing points daily due to flaws in your scoring...

I would like to see a chart that shows your points scored throughout the season ... it would also chart your standing in the league
Just a chart, like tracking a stock with, that shows how many points you had every day ... chart line would be graphed to show jumps in scoring, both up and down, and allow someone to track the progress of their team throughout the season.
I think it would be an interesting visual.

QS software fault for Wheeler
July 14 (NYM vs. Was.).
Matchups updated during inning 6 and posted Wheeler’s QS. Matchups refreshed and showed inning 7 with Wheeler’s QS point, it then stalled, it refreshed and reverted back to inning 2 (which cleared the QS), stalled, refreshed and it reverted back to inning 7 but it did not reinstate the Wheeler QS point. I assume QS calculation is only performed during inning 6, so when it refreshed from inning 2 back to inning 7, the QS calculation was not performed since the correction did not “go through” inning 6. The Yahoo Jul 14 Watchup Rating posted…686th ranked -
RAPP stat Category
i'm in a H2h Points League and the stat category RAPP appears to be bugged when you go to try to search for relief pitchers for the season (total) it shows that no pitchers have any Relief Appearances, but when you search by the last 30 days the Relief Appearances now show up.
590th rankedHey Jon, thanks for calling this out. Our engineers are working to fix the bug. Should be updated soon.

Roto Standings point changes should be color coordinated.
I would like to see a Visual Change to the Roto league standings where each category would either be colored red or green or default depending on if you moved up or down or stayed the same for the previous day. It would help greatly when quickly looking at the categories that I am targeting improve on and following my day to day progress.

Live standings comparisons between colleagues
When you choose to highlight differences between yourself and another manager via the live standings graph, relative differences on ERA and WHIP ratio's are depicted incorrectly. A smaller or lower ERA compared to your colleagues should be depicted as "ahead" (green), not "behind" (red). Stated another way ... your algorithm that highlights the difference bands between opponents only works for counting stats...it should be reversed for ratio's.

My entire lineup is non-scoring?
Why is my entire lineup non scoring on July 1? Is this a mistake, or do I quit Yahoo baseball? I mean why should the baseball season end on June 30?

Why doesnt your Fantasy Baseball ranking go by number of Wins like real Baseball?
Fantasy Baseball shouldnt be scored like Hockey. Wins should determine Playoffs. Make Wins 1.5 points-Ties .5 points-Losses.0. Wins like real MLB should always be the deciding factor to make Playoffs. Simple fix

Scoring in the matchup page is consistently wrong
The live updating matchup page often has incorrect scores, adding up stats for teams incorrectly and doubling stats from the previous day in the early morning hours. This makes the matchup page very difficult to use if it can't be trusted to have the score of the matchup right ... which should be the main priority for the page given that that's the only thing you can really see on the page. Please fix this, or just kill the live updating matchup page, since it just doesn't work.

Create new batting stat category: ABRA: At Bat advancing Runner, this means an at bats where the batter succeeds in advancing baserunner(s)
ABRA: At Bat advancing Runner, this means an at bats where the batter succeeds in advancing baserunner(s), this may sound like a Sacrifice (S) but it will also including walks, HBP, and run-scoring or baserunner advancing ground outs. I think Yahoo Fantasy Baseball buffs like myself will really appreciate this skilled category.
