HR Allowed tries to measure the pitchers skill by brute force. HR/9 captures so much more.

Please add HR/9 to the pitching scoring category. It captures the skill better than HR Allowed.

Wins + Quality Starts is a MUST add. Thank you.

Although most leagues are finished, a few leagues I'm in are just finishing up this week. We now have 2 suspended games in Championship week. Why do you remove the stats generated in those games, then make stat corrections on Sunday?? We're going to have a game finishing on Monday afternoon this week, when will the stats for Miami/NYM from 9/28 be added?? Why not leave the stats in and add rest on the day the game is completed? It's harder to use strategy when you don't have all the information

I would like to request the adding of "Wins + Quality Starts" as a Category. Currently a Starting Pitcher can pitch terrible and still get a Win. Combining "Wins + Quality Starts" is a much more measure of a Starting Pitcher's effectiveness. I can't believe that it would difficult to institute this and would give Commissioners another Category to improve and individualize their League's Scoring. Thanks!

I am requesting for Wins + Quality Starts to be an added category.
It is the top request per the original forum post and appears to have been requested for years by numerous people. Please Yahoo, add this category in the off-season, as it would make for more competitive play and better user experiences.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

Can we add Innings Pitched per Start? Innings pitched can easily be fooled by loading up on starters in a 9 pitcher league where you can start as many SP's as you want. Quality over quantity.

Can we not have 2B + 3B as a scoring category. The extra base scoring currently also adds HR's which isn't an accurate reflection of players that hit a lot of extra base hits but not HR's.
This should be an easy add.

This would be a great add!

My league uses 2B as a category, but it would better to have the option for 2b+3B. Triples are rare enough that I don’t want to use it as a category, but I’m tired of a hit by one of my players being less valuable to me if they stretch it into a triple

Craig Steven Smith commented
seriously, OBP and OPS are critical identifiers of good fantasy play

Craig Steven Smith commented
Return OBP and OPS stats in the list of things to track instead of two other useless categories!!

Hi, I have a fantasy basketball league, and we're interested in seeing a +/- scoring category. This would add a whole new element to the fantasy game. Coaches use +/- data all the time to make coaching decisions, so I think it would be interesting to see that in fantasy as well. Obviously, it would reward fantasy managers who roster players on winning teams and punish those who roster some players on losing teams. Just another challenge to think about when setting lineups against opponents. I think it could work really well for seasoned fantasy basketball managers. Thanks!
