Don't waive the innings limit on shortened weeks!
If leagues don’t offer the option to choose between short vs. long weeks during Opening Week and the Mid-Summer Classic, then the pitching innings limit should not be waived.
Teams that choose to load up on relievers instead of starting pitchers already gain a strategic advantage. That’s a conscious roster decision. Allowing them to win multiple pitching categories with as little as 0.1 innings pitched (e.g., one save with perfect ratios) only amplifies that imbalance.
In previous years, our league defaulted to longer scoring periods (around 10 days). This naturally eliminated the need to waive innings limits and created a…
Thank you for your feedback regarding waiving the innings requirement on shortened weeks. We will pass it along to our team!

DON'T HAVE WEEK 1 LAST FOR 5 SECONDS
Believe it or not, simply getting rid of the min IP for week 1 isn't going to solve the problem. With MLB and all of its stupidity starting one game on a wed and then half the league on thu and fri, at least Yahoo used to count the entire next week as week 1 for matchup leagues. This year, for reasons known only to the brilliant minds at Yahoo, that is not the case. There are 1 million weeks of baseball, we don't need a 3 day week to count as one extra.

Maximum innings pitched and maximum games started per week for starting pitchers
This helps commissioners create a more balanced and fair league by standardizing the use of pitchers, so that everyone adheres to the same maximum innings pitched or the same maximum number of starts for starting pitchers.
Thank you for your feedback! Your thoughts and suggestions are extremely valuable to us which is why we've passed your comments along to our team. We're committed to continuously improving your fantasy experience and appreciate your continued support.

The first week being just the first series (over the 5 days) is terrible.
Yahoo,
Our league was disappointed by your decision to count the first little Wed. - Sun. week in Fantasy Baseball as a week of it's own. There are two main things that aren't preferred about this.
1) There are about 1/3 the number of MLB games in that period as normal week, making it a poor representation of a "fair week".
2) In 12 team leagues like ours (that don't play the last MLB week), this creates a 23rd game, rather than playing everyone twice there is this odd extra week that you play one person in the league 3…Hello,
We will pass along your feedback to our product team.
There won't be a change to the length of Week 1 for this season, as Week 1 will conclude after 3/29.
Thanks,

Dramatically Increase Scoring Category Options
You guys kind of need to get with the times with all the new stats that are regularly used on websites and talk shows. Yahoo is lagging behind in terms of stats and I have been using Yahoo for a very long time. If you don't add more stats in the next year or so I am most likely going to move my league to a different platform like Sleeper. I would love to add wRC+ to my scoring categories but cant

Stat corrections for suspended games should apply to the day those stats were actually recorded
When a game is suspended and resumed later in the week new starting pitching will often come into the game, and this often takes the place of their regularly scheduled weekly start. However, managers aren't able to know this beforehand, and if that player is on their bench the day the game starts (considering there is no reason to have them in the lineup if they aren't scheduled to start that day) those stats for the week will go to waste. I believe this system needs to be revised to either allow managers to retroactively change their roster for suspended…

Ohtani's offensive scoring
Ohtani's offensive scoring is being shown as points for his pitching again.
Thank you for reaching out regarding Ohtani's scoring. This is just a visual issue that our engineering team is looking to fix in the future. The pitcher version of Ohtani will not actually receive points for his batting stats and vice versa. We apologize for the inconvenience.

T.Skubal stat correction
There is no way Skubal gives up 6 runs and one of them was only an Earned Run. Usually yahoo let's you know when a stat correction has been made and it didn't do it this time. PLEASE review how that game actually went as for this is a crucial week for fantasy baseball. Thanks

No negative scores for pitchers
It's really idiotic that one pitcher having one bad outing can have a huge negative score and basically undoes everything else that everyone else scored. Batters can't have negative scores, even if they strike out 5 times, so by what logic should a pitcher be allowed to have a huge negative score. It's just stupid.

Change H2H All-Star Week Counting
Rather than add the 3 days post-all-star to the end of Week 15, it should start Week 16. Strategy going into Sunday is difficult to manage, and the notification at the top of the desktop is not enough when many users access their teams through the app which had no notification of the extra days.

Ohtanis pitching stats are being counted as batting points
Yahoo H2H-Pts 2434 (ID# 2434)
When you go to "matchups" for games played on Saturday (7/12), Ohtani scored 18+ points as a batter. When he actually went 0-4 and goose eggs across the board. The opposite issue happened earlier when he was awarded hitting points for his pitching.
Thank you for reaching out regarding Ohtani's pitching stats being counted as batting points. Our engineering team is aware of this issue and they are working on getting this resolved as soon as possible. Be advised that the points are not actually being counted. It is just a visual bug.

Why didn't I get credit for the Boston-Cincy suspended game this week?????
Bello had a win after game restarted and Spencer Steer hit a 2-run homer but I got NO Points??????????????
Tried to access help but couldn't sign in. Help is terrible!!!!
When a game is suspended, all player scoring from the entire game will be applied via stat corrections at the end of the matchup week at approximately 11:59 pm PT on Sunday. You can see the pending stat corrections via the desktop version of the site by going to the "Players" tab and then clicking on "Stat Corrections". Keep in mind that since this game was the resumption of a suspended game that originally started on 7/1, players would have needed to be in your starting lineup on 7/1, when the game originally began, in order to get credit for any stats they accumulated during the resumption of the game on 7/2.
