    Absolutely!

    This is the one thing that brings down my current keeper league. Some managers abuse streaming and while I understand that whatever it takes to win should be allowed, I feel as though streaming defeats the purpose of assembling a fantasy roster. even with acquisition limits.

    having the option of Setting a max Pitchers or max total starts would be greatly beneficial

    Add a setting that allows the commish to set a max GAMES STARTED per week. There's a max and min innings pitched but no limit to games started. I run a high scoring H2H points league for prob close to 10 years now and we are thinking about leaving Yahoo because this feature has yet to be added. We limit our teams to a max 12 starts per week. Currently we have to monitor it ourselves so you get 1 point per start. This makes it a little easier but there is always a few times each season that someone starts more. We have penalties in place but it sucks trying to enforce them. The easy fix is to have this be a setting. PLLEEEEAAAASSSSSEEEEE!!!!!!

    Agree. No need to do to much "streaming". Or Limit Moves during the playoffs-- reducing them to "TWO MOVES". If there is an injury "DL" or other....well if someone streamed...Tough.
    Just like the manager who might use his "Replay Review" early...and then might need it later and well, its gone. I could live with that. Otherwise, 12 starts, well, is 12 starts / week.

    Great idea. Streaming pitchers is just too time consuming and ruins leagues in my opinion. It takes the fun out of out. A starts limit would solve that problem.

    PLEASE OFFER "GAME STARTS" AS A LIMIT FOR PITCHERS INSTEAD OF JUST MAX. INNINGS. 162 GAME STARTS AS A LIMIT WOULD BE A HUGE IMPROVEMENT.

    some leagues have specific settings and would greatly benefit from this---no one HAS to use it...it would be a fantastic idea and wonderful option for us to have if we indeed did use such a setting in our league---would be a welcome addition, yahoo! thank you for hopefully doing this for us who it would benefit!
