DL/INJ
Why are you waiting until opening day to put players on DL/INJ? I need to replace them NOW!
Thank you for reaching out in regard to players being put on the IL. Players will receive the IL designation in fantasy baseball once their team in real life officially places them on the IL. If a team has not placed a specific player on their IL yet, the player will not receive the IL designation in fantasy.

Instant Mock Draft on Yahoo Plus - Algorithm Errors
Not sure how many others have noticed this but for Fantasy Baseball, whenever I do an Instant Mock Draft, the algorithm for which players the CPU selects is incorrect.
Sometimes players like Elly De La Cruz, Trea Turner and a smattering of others (Top-50 players) will still be on the board at Pick 150 or later...it's like the computer doesn't see them or something. Additionally, there are times where the CPU will pick a player ranked 150 or later....at Pick 75 or way earlier.
Something needs to be fixed.
Thank you for your feedback regarding the instant mock draft algorithm. If you are still experiencing this issue, please contact our support team via https://help.yahoo.com/kb/fantasy-baseball >> Contact Us.

Draft
I did my first mock draft, and it was very difficult. I can only see three players at a time and had to move left to scroll down to see other players i lose the names makes it hard to make decision and time runs out.
Thank you for contacting us in regard to only seeing three players at a time in your draft. It sounds like your screen may be zoomed in too far and you'll need to zoom out in order to see more players. Using keyboard shortcuts, your web browser lets you zoom in to make the text bigger and easier to read or zoom out to make it smaller and fit more on the screen.
- Zoom in - Press Ctrl (CMD on a Mac) + the plus key (+) on your keyboard.
- Zoom out - Press Ctrl (CMD on a Mac) + the minus key (-) on your keyboard.
Zoomed too far? Press Ctrl (CMD on a Mac) + 0 to go back to the default size.
If you are using Google Chrome, you can also click on the three vertically aligned dots in the top right corner to…

Rotisserie play and Autopick draft?
Is Yahoo Fantasy Baseball going to have a Winner League with Rotisserie play and Autopick drafts?
I don’t want to do standard draft date and time.
Thanks,
Mike Molloy
PS
I spoke to Kurt earlier.Thanks for reaching out regarding winners leagues for fantasy baseball. There should be rotisserie winners leagues for you to join when you go to join a league from the fantasy baseball homepage. You can sign up for an auto pick draft type for standard public leagues, but for winners leagues you'll need to select the draft date/time. You can still have your team autopick in that draft by just not making any picks manually or even entering the draft room for the draft.

Draft Room made me move my league to ESPN
I am the commissioner of my fantasy baseball league, and a half hour before my draft, I couldn't change the order of the draft. I spent an hour and a half trying to figure it out. I couldn't reset the draft, change the order, or apply any changes to the league settings as long as the draft was considered open. I could literally do NOTHING.
Your product is complete dog **** and I'm moving my whole league to ESPN because I wasn't even able to make minor changes to our draft and execute it properly.
It takes a lot for…
Thanks for reaching out. The ability to edit the draft order is only available until approximately one hour prior to the draft. The draft can be reset from the draft room if you are using a desktop/laptop. The steps to edit the order and reset the draft from the draft room can be found here.

In the setkeepercosts page for Keeper Salaries, add sorting the players alphabetically and salary management
In the setkeepercosts page for Keeper Salaries, I would love to be able to sort the players alphabetically and paste in the salaries. My league has 317 players in the list and manually updating each field is extremely tedious. Any chance on an update in the future? Even better would be to add in different rules to mathematically adjust salaries year to year.
Most of our salaries are tracked in an excel spreadsheet with formulas for acceleration depending on how many years a player has been kept and what round they were kept in. Even something simple like adding or…

Please stop cheating
We have a manger in our league (52067) that controls 2 teams. At first he was just asking for the same players and continuing conversations in trades from both teams. But it has already blossomed into cheating by trading all the best players from one team to the other. If you look at the histories of each ID you can see they have been in the same public league together multiple times before and they both use the same team names over and over - 4 leagues this year already. I dont know if he has cheated in all of…

Why cant i find the link to delete my pre draft baseball team from a league? WHERE IS THAT OPTION?

- Private League - Before the commissioner finalized the league's team list.
Delete your team
- From Yahoo Fantasy, mouse over Fantasy | select a sport.
- Next to "My Teams and Leagues," click here
- Click Delete Team next to the team you want to remove.
- Click Delete Team again to confirm.

Salaries
Why are only keepers salaries able to be displayed? All salaries should be displayed for players. Why are the salaries not displayed on the app? This needs to change. Yahoo hasn't made any improvements in the keeper leagues for 10 years.
Hey Paul,
A commissioner in a salary cap league has the ability to show keeper salaries on the team roster page, in trade flows, or in the declare keeper tool. The option to select these choices is in the Keeper Salaries tool under the Draft & Keepers tab.
Thanks,

Keeper League Contract Value
One of the drawbacks of Yahoo! as opposed to other sites is that you don't have a way to identify keepers with contract values. It is very disheartening when certain players get drafted and they become stars and NEVER see the FA pool again (i.e. Ohtani, Judge, etc.). It would be really nice if there was a way to assign a contract value to each and every player so they would have limits on the amount of time they could be kept on a team.
For example...if you start a keeper league brand new, all drafted players would be year…

Stop defaulting to HTH pts. Hard to find HtH.
Allow choices on what league to draft into. Currently, I cannot escape the default of HtH pts.
Thank you for your feedback. If you choose the "Draft Now" option, you'll only be able to choose Head-to-Head Points as that is the default. However, you can join Head-to-Head Category leagues if you choose the "Draft Later" option.

We're committed to continuously improving your fantasy experience and appreciate your continued support.

Continuous nightly waivers, with mid-day Free Agents
Need a system where waivers are run nightly, but after a player clears waivers for that night they can be added as a free agent until their game starts that day (or until 10pm EST if no game that day). This is a best of all worlds option that eliminates the early alarm clock to add free agents in the standard system but also gives flexibility to make last minute changes if players are ruled out mid-day.
Thank you for your feedback regarding having continuous waivers nightly, but with free agents available during the day. We will pass it along to our team!
