Requests for new scoring categories and general functionality.
Some of the most highly requested scoring categories are:
- Wins + Quality Starts
- Opponent OPS
- TB/9
- HR/9
- Net Wins
- Total Walks allowed + Total hits allowed

I'd originally posted a suggestion to add a QS+CG scoring, and now the link redirects to this...
IMO combining Quality Starts with Complete Games provides a more well-rounded stat for comparing Starting Pitchers, while QS+W still leaves room for RPs to contribute to the category...

If Holds + Saves is a possible category, then Quality Starts + Complete Games should be as well.
Thanks!

A lot of managers in my Roto league last year were complaining about the inconsistency between their SP quality outings and their ability to record wins. I love the quality start category but it's always fun to root for your SP to win the game and not just post 6+IP <3 earned runs. QS + W would be a fun category because it would add wins as an added bonus making the Kershaw Wainright Scherzers a more valuable asset to your team. Hopefully this new category will be approved and implemented for the 2015 season. Thanks Yahoo!

I agree. While QSs are a better reflection of a pitchers value, fantasy baseball wouldn't be as fun without Ws. This is a perfect compromise because it doesnt requiring an extra SP stat, which would effect the value of SPs.
