FANTASY PLAYER UPDATES
WHY WHY WHY ARE PLAYER UPDATES NOT POSTED???
Hi Edward,

Chad Stevens should be 3B Eligible
Hi Yahoo Fantasy Support,
I’m writing to request a review of Chad Stevens’ position eligibility in my Yahoo Fantasy Baseball league. He has played 3rd base in 10+ games this year at Albuquerque, so he should qualify for 3B eligibility under Yahoo’s position rules.
Please review his current eligibility and update it if needed.
Thank you.
Thank you for reaching out regarding the position eligibility for Chad Stevens. Stevens will gain 3rd base and shortstop eligibility overnight. We apologize for the inconvenience as there was an issue with his initial position eligibility.

Abhorrent Waiver Wire Rules and Structure
If you have an open roster space and want to do two transactions (One being an NA drop / pick up), it's impossible. THERE needs to be a way to drop and then pick up a new NA player directly into your NA spot while at the same time processing a regular wavier wire transaction. Missing out on a player when your team is limping along due to injuries is frustrating while you want to also prepare for the rest of the season.
Hi Billy,
The default setting to allow injured players from waivers or free agents to be added directly to an injury slot is "No" in Public and Public Prize Leagues. Private League commissioners can enable this setting, which should allow managers to also add NA players directly to the NA roster spot.
Thanks,

Enable order change
Please find a way to change the order of my fantasy teams. Why should football be listed on top of the order in May and Baseball be listed second? You might as well put Hockey on top even though the season just ended. Totally ridiculous!

Waivers and IL
I don't understand why you don't offer holds as a stat category for pitchers. You have four categories that already take off points for pitchers and there are a lot of guys that get holds but won't get many saves or wins. Needs to be added. Another is it would be nice to have more that four IL spots. I have Skukal, Fried, Hader, Helsley, Lindor and Donovan all on the IL. I prefer not to drop but it means clogging up my active roster with IL guys. Because they are all great fantasy players. If I drop them someone…

Hitter-Friendly park or Pitcher-Friendly park
Right next to the icon that informs us where our players are playing today, there might be a ****-stadium or a weather icon informing us of weather conditions for the day, it would also be helpful if there was a "P" or "H" or "N" there also to indicate (in general) if the venue is a "Pitcher-friendly" park (P), or a "Hitter-friendly" park (H) or a "Neutral" (N) park. This would not have to be complicated by individual batters or anything like that, just a general appraisal of the venue and what it is deemed in MLBs assessment. When this…
Thank you for your feedback regarding adding an icon to indicate if a park is hitter or pitcher friendly. We will pass it along to our team!

Standings/points over time
I was very disappointed when you removed the standings over time graphs. Now, there's no way to see what happened even yesterday, let alone over time. All a manager can see is that I gained or lost X points last night, but seemingly no way to know which categories. At the very least, there should be a way to see the breakdown of yesterday's point move
After careful consideration, we've made the decision to discontinue support for Graph View. We recognize the value that Graph View may bring to your experience and appreciate your understanding as we make this change. By making this decision, we aim to redirect our focus towards enhancing other aspects of our fantasy games.

desktop StatTracker should show the season HR total for a player, after hitting a HR...NOT HR DISTANCE
desktop StatTracker should show the season HR total for a player, after hitting a HR ...instead it shows the distance of the HR, which is always different from the actual MLB Statcast distance. the HR total is much more useful. thanks

Pre-Season Rankings
Why do you guys change your "Pre-Season Rankings" of players throughout the year? For example, last week Drake Baldwin's "Pre-Season Ranking" was 42, and now this week it's 39 (even though his actual pre-season ranking was probably in the 100s before our draft). It shouldn't change at all based on current season performance, as all of these guys should just one set ranking prior to the season. It would be helpful to see how a player truly was ranked prior to the season to compare.
Thank you

Players
Teams that haven’t moved their players that are on the DL list and ain’t playing any games should have their players taken away from them and put back in the draft

Add WNBA to Gamechannel
I use Gamechannel religiously for all other sports. With the increase in popularity, it would be awesome to add the WNBA as an option, perhaps replacing College BB during the season (as they don't overlap).

Increase the number of allowable NA spots for Minor Leaguers (Dynasty)
Trying to run a "dynasty" league on yahoo is becoming increasingly difficult due to the restrictive amount of "minor league" spots (NA). As baseball prospects take long years to become valued assets, maximizing NA at 10 prospects leaves way too many desirable players on waivers for a deeper/standard dynasty league. With anything, all that is increasing is the allowable maximum to allow for these more in-depth dynasty leagues to exist.

Automatic capital letter and likes count
Hello, it would be ideal to have the first letter of sentences in the chats be automatically capitalized again. Many end users are also missing the total likes count from the previous version. Would be great to restore both of those lost features in the new update. Thank you.

Position Eligibility table
Guys - your table graphic for fantasy baseball position eligibility is horrendous. It's nearly impossible to tell which S and which P goes with which position across the top row. Please fix/improve!!

Historical points
we used to be able to see how the standings change over time, but that has disappeared. Can't even see the breakdown of the points gained or lost on a particular day the next day, which is ridiculous. In other words, if my team gained 4 standings points today, I'd love to know which category I got those in. Please bring back some view of standings points over time!

stop allowing EVERY petty veto to go through
you have a Yahoo Review of trade protests, yet you VETO EVERYTHING. I've had several trades this year alone where I'm unsure which side of the deal is lopsided. Do you even LOOK? Do you use your lagging and months-behind rankings? Vetoing trades should be for the massively lopsided deals pointing to collusion. Account for current values, account for rookies having far too low value to begin year, allow people to make mistakes, and let the trades go through!

Please give the commish ability to change lineups after games have started. I am in a league where many people work full time jobs so they can't update lineups knowing some players are hurt or not starting that day... This gives them the ability to contact the commish before games start to be able to inform him/her to edit their lineup. Sometimes the commish is busy so won't see it right away but can go back and edit. Our league has agreed to this but you guys don't have the option like you do in fantasy football. I don't get…
