Please add this! It would be a HUGE improvement, and there’s other options out there with more league customization.

I have been asking for this category now for YEARS!
The following is an embarrassingly asinine list of categories that Yahoo thinks is more relevant that QS+W:
Balks
Grand Slams
Catcher Interference
Hitting for the Cycle
Pickoffs
No Hitters
Perfect Games -
Chris Walker commented
Will another year go by while Yahoo fails to support this category?

ERA is a useful summary statistic, but my favorite stat for pitchers is Opponent OPS. For MLB, overall, Opponent OPS is pretty consistent with ERA, but for an individual pitcher, it is much more indicative of his true pitching performance than ERA. ERA has many biases that Opponent OPS does not have. For example, ERA rewards pitchers who allow most of their home runs with no runners on base or are able to strand runners at the end of innings, even though those events are generally believed to be random and out of the pitcher’s control.Yahoo, please add Opponent OPS as an available scoring category.

In pitching Holds & losses , and hitting extra base hits, walks Walks of all of these must be added, stupid not to add them. Same with Holds.for pitchers.

How can I find out if this feedback page is viewed by any one at yahoo? Wins plus Quality Starts has been asked about for years with no response.

If you play in roto with Ks and BBs for offensive stats, this could lead to skewed standings if not everyone uses their games played. Adding in K% and BB% lets us keep the stats we like and avoid any potential problems with teams not using all their spots and gaining 12 points in Ks. Thanks

Creating a category just for "starting pitcher wins" would eliminate RPs from racking up 'cheap' wins

Pitching Category Net Wins which is wins minus losses

I agree. Please add Wins + QS. It's very simple and will get rid of the controversy behind choosing one or the other.

About 4-5 years ago, I suggested a new pitching category, OPS against. Just like hitters have OPS, so do pitchers. If OBP against can be a pitching category, so can OPS against, or OOPS. Opponent OPS is much more indicative of a pitcher's true pitching performance than ERA is. Please add.
