Move the Start Active Players out of such a prominent position
Can you please move the "Start Active Players" button to the bottom of the page. I don't know how many times I've accidentally clicked on that. And most of the user base and your active players absolutely hate that button and have no need for it. It just gets in the way and messes everything up if you click on it accidentally. Or at least add an "are you sure?" prompt when you click it.
We appreciate you submitting this feedback. I’ll be sure to relay this to our product team for review.

Add more stats/data on individual player pages
When I click on a player, I'd like to be able to see more info, like the probable pitcher of their matchup or split stat date (vs. RHP/LHP, Home/Away).
We appreciate you submitting this feedback. I’ll be sure to relay this to our product team for review.

Ability to view real-time standings
There is no ability to view the real-time standings in the mobile app (like there is on desktop site). Especially when we get near the end of the season and matchups are close, I have to go on the desktop site or do the math in my head to figure out if I would move up a spot or not.
We appreciate you submitting this feedback. I’ll be sure to relay this to our product team for review.

Last Name Glitch on App
I've noticed a glitch on the App for Fantasy Baseball where "Jr." is showing up as the last name of the player. For example Ronald Acuna Jr is showing up as "R. Jr" and Vladimir Guerrero Jr is showing up as "V. Jr". Could you please look into having this corrected to include the last name of the player rather than just the Jr.
Hi Ravi,
Thanks for your feedback.
We are aware of this issue and our engineering team is working to get this resolved as soon as possible.
Thanks,

Interactive Roto League Standings table
Would it be possible to bring back the old "Overall Standings - Distance from competition" table to the "Full Standings" page on roto leagues?
The new table isn't interactive like the old one was. It's also much harder to read.
This is a temporary issue we are working on getting resolved.

Notifications do not work for the other ID when using multiple IDs
For people with multiple IDs, notifications on the yahoo app are a real pain. If you switch IDs, you only get notifications pertaining to that particular ID which you are currently signed into... So you miss updates on players, chat messages, etc. And even when you switch, you have to manually look for the chats because there is nothing telling you that you missed something while on the other ID. I know this is a somewhat unique thing for people who play a lot of leagues but it's a huge usability issue.
Thank you for this feedback. We do not recommend creating multiple Yahoo IDs to override the maximum leagues per ID. If you attempt to join paid contests with two different IDs you can be blocked and have all contests cancelled.

Bring back notifications and liking other messages in the Fantasy App Chat
The ‘update’ that was done to chat is horrible. Removed the ability to be notified of new messages. Also removed the ability to ‘like’ another users message. Both of these are great features and need to be added back into the app. Notifications are necessary.
We are still working to release the full update of chat. We appreciate your patience while we work on this for you.

Just bring back the old chat.
I get that the new chat isn't finished, but maybe just leave the old one in place until you have finished coding the new chat. The new chat system is garbage. (Can't upload images. Can't reply to another manager. Can't access from the website. Can't like/promote another manager's comment.) Seems like the old one was functional, at least. This one needs to spend some time in beta testing before being pushed to everyone.
We’re still working on improving and updating Fantasy Chat. A lot of the features you mentioned are coming. You can read more about them here https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN29281.html

Other teams players daily score display
Please add the option to check other teams DAILY scores by players in the mobile app. We are only allowed to see the accumulative score of the week.
Hey Rhadames, thanks for your feedback! On the matchup tab, you’ll see a filter at the top named ‘Totals’. Click that and you can toggle the individual day’s scoring.
