Adding Salary Cost next to player names
For Salary Cap leagues Yahoo should add the player cost from the Salary Cap draft next to the players name, in the 'My Team' area and 'Players' area. There should also be an option to keep that cost next to the player all year, even if dropped, or remove the cost when the player is dropped.
Would add so much more value to the Yahoo Salary Cap leagues.

PPD games prove we need IL+ in Fantasy Baseball
If a player has Covid, they can be put on the IL. If the rest of the players on their team can't play because the game is PPD, there's nothing a manager can do. They have to suck it up and run with a shorthanded roster.
We're already seeing PPDs messing with opening week. Stars like deGrom, Alonso, Soto, Turner, and more are forced to sit on the bench through no fault of their own.
If baseball had IL+, a manager could slide the PPD players over and pick someone up until their main guys are ready to play again.

Adjustment to Wavier/Date Turnover Time
Is it possible to change the waiver/day turnover time? As set currently, the first available time to complete Free Agent pickup and still persevere your waiver priority position is 3am EST. Based upon this setup, individuals (with ample time on their hands) are rewarded for staying up or waking up at 3am EST and making a pickup. This puts some individuals (most of whom have a job) at a disadvantage as 3am EST just does not work someone who is on a typical work schedule. Not sure if this is doable, but the current setup is less than optimal.

Auto-renewal enhancement
As a commish, when leagues auto-renew (which is a great feature) there is no way to know if the owners actually committed. I wish the owners had to at least confirm that they are participating.

I want the option to shorten the head to head season
We’re coming from ESPN where they have a 14 week minimum. I want the option to shorten the head to head season so our fantasy football players can be done by August 1. Right now the longer yahoo season may be a deal breaker and we’ll play ESPN again.

Extend the Draft Timer up to five minutes
Hello, I would like you to consider extending the draft timer options past two minutes. I would like up to five. We have been drafting live for 20 years and have to move online this year. We take the league too seriously to risk auto picks after two minutes. We don't want to deal with reverting picks and other timer issues.
Hook up the pandemic draft timer options!

Eliminate keepers in predraft pick lists
Here is a simple request. Please eliminate all keeper players from each GM's available pre draft rankings. Right now, keepers are entered (manually) but when each GM goes to do their pre draft rankings, ALL the keeper players are listed in there still! So each GM has to manually select every keeper player(we have 200 keepers) and move them to the ignore side of the draft rankings. it is rediculous! They should be removed from any eligible predraft rankings lists. i have asked for this for about 3 years now. Please...would help every single keeper league.

This not being able to add and drop player when ever it the most ridiculous thing i have ever seen
This newnot being able to add and drop player when ever it the most ridiculous thing i have ever seen. i cannot drop anyone frm day t day or even after the game starts? you should be able to add and drop players whenever you want during the day. life isnt always even steven! if you take the time to watch it you should get to add a player when you want! if i just want to add some players for my IL spots it each takes a day each!!! truey ridiculous. go back to the old way and stop…

Highlight player when at bat.
On the stat tracker, can you make the row turn another color when a player is at bat? I thought it used to turn yellow, but it doesnt now.
700th rankedThanks for the feedback. We’ll look into adding this for future seasons.

Add a ROSTER filter to league searches
I like that you search for custom leagues using filters by scoring type, draft date etc.
Have you considered adding a filter so managers can search by roster change format: daily/weekly? I'm looking only for leagues with a WEEKLY roster change format, but it is very tedious to click on each league to view the rules to see what the roster change rule is. It'd be easier to just be able to filter for all weekly roster leagues.
Perhaps there are even one or two other filters that would also be useful for league searching? Thanks !683rd ranked -

Offer Start Active Players in Separate Icons for Hitting, and then Pitching
Unfortunately, the Start Active Players function is useless in Baseball because it often removes relievers from scoring positions that necessitate going back and redoing the line up for each day defeating the purpose of the function, and potentially causing errors.

List SPs on lineup change page
A huge part of fantasy is knowing which pitcher batters are facing. Just put that days opposing starter next to the game time or opponent. Every other major site does it.

Your IL system is RIDICULOUS...I already moved Mazara to the bench from IL....
Quit handcuffing people & fix the mistake...
Ive been playing for over 30 years..& this system is atrocious...
Its bad enough you cant even put people in trades/transaction when you put a guy on the waiver wire...
You need to fire the fool running your system now...
No reason whatsoever why I shouldn't be able to make moves right now...
Im not wrong.
I know Im right..Fix it...
Or I playin' this ********* anymore...Really
Its bad..
This is rookie stuff.

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.

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!
