The player list updates during a real draft. Can this list be synced to mock drafts while they occur?

Stat granularity per position
I would like the ability to add or remove stats per position. Obvious examples would be the following -
- An actual DH position rather than Util, where scoring stats are ignored
- SP slots where Saves/Holds/NSH are ignored
- RP slots where W/QS are ignored
- The ability to change some defensive stats per position, such as adding Caught Stealing for catchers
Thanks!

Why no sabermetrics?
We are the geeks of baseball! Why don't we have more Sabermetric stats?

Take Andrew McCutchen off can't cut list.
He has been awful. Just takes up a valuable roster spot.

Thanks for the feedback. -
Love the weather icons, but need to be Color-coded
It's an awesome idea but I think it could be improved if the icons were color-coded different colors. Right now, most are grey making it hard to distinguish between the different ones. Something like:
Yellow=Sunny
Blue = Rain
Grey = Overcast
Orange = windyAlso it would be nice to see some info on whether ballparks with retractable roofs are open or closed.
Thanks!

New setting request for Roster Changes
Can we have a setting that makes you set one single roster of hitters and pitchers for the entire week (and keeps the same bench players on the bench all week)? Otherwise, everyone just loads up on pitchers and there's no point to keeping bench hitters. The weekly roster changes setting is not that helpful because you can still move pitchers in and out of your starting lineup for the week (as long as you set your entire week up on Sunday/Monday). To help explain this more, think about football, you can't put a RB in your lineup for Thursday…

Remove the weather - it makes the page messy. We don't really need to know that on each player line.

The player popup window should show strikeouts.
The popup window shows IBBs, but not Ks for a batter? I would rather see Ks than IBBs on that popup. I'm using a Mac and it's not showing Ks for hitters on Firefox, Chrome or Safari in the popup. I think this is the first year I've not seen Ks on the popup.

Please let us see how many people are in a Pro League without making us sign up for it first.
Please let us see how many people are in a Pro League without making us sign up for it first. Would be nice if I knew how many people were already in a Pro League before I signed up for it. Think it would help to consolidate half full leagues if everyone could see upfront which ones were close to full already

leagues w/ divisions - standings based within division
lets say private leagues have 2 divisions of 5. allow us to Make standings go from 1-5 in each division instead of current format where it ranks teams regardless of division (which makes it pointless to have divisions). If this cannot be done, let us customize which teams make playoffs so we can actually have Wildcard spots

Registration Schedule for Pro Leagues
I know that fantasy baseball just opened but this is something to keep in mind. Not trying to rush you guys because the following suggestions were probably going to happen anyway.
Make at least one date and time available for all draft type, scoring type and entry fee combinations. If the league doesn't fill, so what? We'll get a refund and sign up for another league.
Please don't schedule unusual draft times. For example, I see that there is one draft on Feb 2 at 12AM pacific time. I don't think anyone wants to draft then.
Thank you

Eliminate Consolation Round. If you miss the playoffs you should be eliminated from making moves and stealing players from real winners.
Eliminate Consolation Round. If you miss the playoffs you should be eliminated from making moves and stealing players from real winners. Some managers can help other managers by taking a player that can benefit their friend in the playoffs and hurt the integrity of the game. And quite honestly, after playing a full season and not making the Playoffs, why would I or should I keep playing? It doesn't make sense.

Allow keeper cost changes midseason
Currently, the only players that you can have a keeper cost on are players who were kept from the previous season. However, if a player is added to the player pool midseason, we would want to know their cost to keep next season but it does not allow that because he was not kept going into the season. The keeper cost should be forward looking not in reverse. You should make decisions on players based on their cost to keep next season not what it cost you to keep them going into the year. Therefore, the commissioner should be able…

Trade that show other manger reviewed offer
Create a feature that shows when opposing manager views your trade offer.
Also the ability to add additional comments on that offer, which would allow for negotiation. Kind of like the comments at the end of a blog, but only the 2 managers involved could see them.

In player search, add a "Probable following day" to go along with "Probable" for pitchers.
Sometimes a manager might want to go ahead and pick up a pitcher who is starting the next day in a same day transactions league. It would be nice to be able to have a drop down option to find all probably pitchers the following day to decide who to pick up.

Hidden Auction Bidders
I think it would be a great idea to have the option to have the bidder during an auction be hidden. This would prevent managers from bidding on a player only due to who else is bidding on them. This happens a lot in a league I am in due to lack of preparation by some managers.

Player Add Notification
There should be a function to submit a player you are wanting to add that hasn't been registered in the system yet. Once he is added I should be notified directly by yahoo to have first chance of obtaining. I'm specifically referencing Hector Oliviera from the Dodgers. Currently I check every single day to see if he has been added yet with no real timeframe to understand once he is added.

7, 15, and 60 day DL roster positions
Length-specific DL roster positions should be available at the commissioner's discretion. The rules for the DL should resemble the actual rules for the MLB as much as possible. Including this feature will greatly benefit keeper leagues that have teams wanting to hold on to players that would have been dropped in a non keeper league.
This feature was suggested last year and accepted this year, but not properly implemented. The players are listed on the correct disabled list, but there is no option to use this new feature as a roster position.
