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.

Search option for ONLY Players playing today
I want to just sort by who's playing today and see who I want to pick up. I don't care for the people who isn't playing. I'd look at what ESPN is doing and update the filters for waivers.
351st rankedThank you for providing this feedback. I appreciate you taking the time to reach out with this excellent feature suggestion.

Allow DTD injuries to be DL-eligible!
A much needed feature in Yahoo Fantasy Baseball (and all sports, really) is the ability to add players to the DL/IR, whatever you want to call it, when they are nursing injuries of any kind. Out with food poisoning? Day to day with a strained hammy? Make the player DL-eligible. Fantrax has this and it's a great feature. I'm told that Yahoo even has a form of this with IR+ in hockey - but only hockey. Baseball needs it, too. Restricting the DL to just players that are on the DL list in real life is silly. Thanks!

How about give leagues a choice on Ohtani
How about give leagues a choice on Ohtani
Why not have 3 Ohtani's in the Yahoo Universe and allow individual leagues decide how they wish to deal with him?Ohtani (Util & SP)
Ohtani (Util)
Ohtani (SP)Individual leagues can decide whether there are two or one in their league. If leagues what one unified player then they can set their own rules that the other two can't be rostered. If for some reason leagues like having two separate Ohtani's they can make the unified one off limits on rosters.
This seems something Yahoo can do now without disrupting leagues…

Allow Free Agent NA's to be directly added to NA spots
Just like you've done with the DL spots, NAs should be able to be added directly from FA pool to NA spots. This has been an issues for years and very frustrating to have to drop a player first to do this. Also, NAs should be able to be traded directly from NA spot to NA spot. This is a nightmare for keeper and dynasty leagues who use NAs for minor league players.

Extend Team Name from 20 to 25 characters
Hello,
I am the co-commissioner of Major League Fantasy Baseball. We here at the MLFB, appreciate the flexibility provided to us courtesy of Yahoo! Sports, and have been doing so since our inaugural season of 2009. We hold our league in the highest of standards, emulating the most personal and real-life experience for our owners and managers alike. It has come to our attention, that a team would like to relocate from Washington to Philadelphia, however this transaction cannot be completed, due to the inability to exceed 20 characters for a team name, and the "Philadelphia Phillies" protrudes that limit.…

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.

Pre-draft rankings
Please add a search feature in the pre-draft rankings. Having to scroll thru names either by alphabetical order or rank order is pretty annoying and adding a search feature seems like an easy fix.

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 -

Allow to pick up an "N/A" free agent player and assign him to N/A roster spot
We should be able to pick up an N/A player and assign him directly to a N/A roster position spot. It sucks that you have to drop a player to make a spot for the N/A player, then move the N/A player to the N/A roster spot, then pick up a different player than the original. You shouldn't have to miss out on a current player to stash away an N/A player.

Allow players to be benched or inserted during double header
Nothing infuriates me more than when a player has a double header and I lose a FULL DAY of production at the plate from a PINCH HITTING appearance. It's 2018, Yahoo. We've put up with this nonsense for too long. Fix it so I can either bench the player if he's not in the starting lineup after the 1st game or insert them for the 2nd game if they didn't play the first.

Need to add maximum IP or limit starts per week in H2H points leagues
Need allow commish to add a MAXIMUM innings pitched or set number of starts per week.
It's too easy to win when you can stream starting pitchers in a points league (we do have a 5 transaction limit, but still need an innings max).

Let us re-sort the pre-draft rankings without having to create an entirely new list
Currently, if you don't like the default pre-draft rankings, you have to basically create an entirely new list in your preferred order by clicking the arrows to add players to the "Preferred" list.
Why not just allow us to drag-and-drop names from the default list? If I don't want Scherzer at #1 (I mean, seriously Yahoo!?) and a handful of other players, usually pitchers, in weird spots, I shouldn't have to create a whole new list of nearly 300 players.
Just let me drag Scherzer down to a more reasonable spot and continue to use the default list as is.

Prospects who were either SP or RP last should remain as such this year. My league does not use a P so those pitchers are missing
My League only has SP or RP slots.... no P
All of the pitchers listed as P are missing from my league. Teams in my keeper league owned players last year and they are now missing because they only have a P eligibility.
Players such as Ian Anderson who last year was designated SP..... was never called up to the Bigs and is now labeled P
Please Fix It

Allow user to change player slot during the Draft. 1B/OF. Owner should choose where he is.
Allow user to change player slot during the draft. If a player has multiple position eligibility such as 1B/OF, the owner should choose where he is put in your team during the draft. That way I can draft around what I've picked, not where yahoo sticks them on my team.
