Search option for ONLY Players playing today
I want to just sort by who's playing today and see who I want to pick up. I don't care for the people who isn't playing. I'd look at what ESPN is doing and update the filters for waivers.

Your IL system is RIDICULOUS...I already moved Mazara to the bench from IL....
Quit handcuffing people & fix the mistake...
Ive been playing for over 30 years..& this system is atrocious...
Its bad enough you cant even put people in trades/transaction when you put a guy on the waiver wire...
You need to fire the fool running your system now...

Yahoo waiver glitch
Our league has a 3 move maximum per week. By Sunday all of us were out of moves. However, the waivers execute on Monday morning at 3 am (a new week). Some folks in our league were able to put in claims on Sunday for the Monday night pickup. But others got the message that they were out of moves for the week. Please fix this ASAP. It is creating issues in our league. It is an obvious glitch.

Double the max waiver moves the first "week" of the season.
First week of fantasy baseball is played over 2 weeks. Yet the max waiver moves stays at 6. Should be at least 10.

Reset player acquistion counter based on week/matchup player will be available
For daily transaction leagues: If I reach the matchup acquisition limit and attempt to pick up a player on Sunday who will not be available for my lineup until Monday, I should be able to complete that acquisition. That player add should count against the next week/matchup's limit as the player will not be able to be used in my lineup until the following day.

Streamline waiver claim priority: Tiles/Drag&Drop please! Dropdown rank menu is TERRIBLE!
This suggestion will only make the user experience better there is no downside. The drop down ranking menu to prioritize waiver claims is terrible! Please make each waiver claim a drag & drop tile like you do with editing lineups on the team page, i.e. I should be able to prioritize my waiver claim by dragging and dropping each claim into the order I wish the claim to be processed. Yahoo!'s current dropdown rank for each claim is hard to keep track of when doing multiple claims at once. After around 5 claims it's easy to lose track of the…

Inconsistent Waiver Procedure
Today is Monday 5/14 at 2:15 AM and I just tried to place a waiver claim for the standard 3 AM claim cycle. 3 AM has consistently been the cutoff to place claims except for today, the cycle kicked in sometime around 2 am...aka claims placed after 2 am now will take place on Tuesday 5/15. This is not only unfair to the night owls, but also those in the pacific and mountain time zones who are used to the 3 am cutoff.
While tolerable, it's disappointing that claims process at different times of the night unlike other servers. The…

A standard waiver for hitters, continuous FAAB waivers for pitchers option
Would allow you to fill your lineup on day of games, while also preventing the "vulture pickup" problem that affects mainly closers.
The main problem with continuous waivers is not being able to fill your lineup on day of games when games are postponed and guys aren't starting, of course. The primary annoyance with standard is vultures picking up setup men for injured/removed closers. This would solve both of those...
Seems to give you best of both worlds and I wouldn't think that hard to implement...

Allow Waiver settings to be similar to fantasy football.
It would be helpful, especially in weekly lineup leagues, to have waivers be able to be set similarly to Fantasy Football. The idea would be the commissioner could select which day waivers run and which day all players go on waivers. All players are free agents the other days. ie. Waivers start at first game on Monday and process on Thursday, now any player who was not added via waivers is a free agent available for pick up on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

For leagues that use FAAB instead of the traditional waiver wire pickup,
For leagues that use FAAB to pick up players, there is not an option for a minimum bid and it still allows for players to be picked up without using tyour FAAB money which defetas the purpose of that setting.
My suggestion is for leagues that have that setting is for the only way to pick up a player is to use atleast $1 of your FAAB money.
When you pick up a player either via FAAB or a FA Pickup it still takes a day for the move to happen even after you find out you pick up that…

Allow manager to put in waiver claim on a player, even though they were the one who dropped them.
Sometimes when I drop someone and then during the days he's on waivers, something changes and I may be interested in having the player again. But for some reason, when you drop someone, you're not allowed to make a waiver claim for them, using the standard waiver system. You can make waiver claims in the FAAB system on your own dropped players. So why not in standard waivers, too?

Disappointment -- Waivers Weekly League
It's been a year now with multiple people commenting on this issue and yahoo still hasn't fixed it. Waivers --> Weekly --> FAAB Continuous --> Monday. If I put a waiver request in for a player x on Sunday, on Monday the waiver processes, but Yahoo's system doesn't allow you to include that player in your lineup for that week. You have to wait an entire week before you can include that player. This is absurd! So that means, we have to set the processing day to Sunday in order to include that player x in our lineup for that…

Jordan Montgomery, LHP, Yankees???
Cannot find Jordan Montgomery in your list of players. He is played in AAA last year, should be an N/A this year if he doesn't make the Yankees starting roster.
Can you add him? I'd like to pick him up. Thanks!

Add position sorting for P - Probable +1 Day
Currently the P-Probable sorting is only helpful to ID starters for the current Day; however with constant waivers and FAAB its not easily sorted who the starters are for the following day, so if you wanted to stream a starter you have to look other places to determine the probable starter...

Add Continuous Waiver Mode into Pro Leagues
Yahoo Pro Leagues are the best product available in Fantasy Baseball with one exception. Managers who get to news first are able to dominate the free agent pool. It is a strategy of some managers to completely ignore closers during their draft/auction, because they know they have the availability to get to all news first and dominate the free agent pool. Those of us with jobs and/or lives are not able to feasibly do this. Keep in mind that getting to the waiver wire first is not a function of being smarter or better. It's just a matter of availability.…

Adjustable waiver processing times for "Continuous Waiver Mode"
When using continuous waivers, the waiver time needs to be adjustable for each individual league (ESPN has had this feature for a while). The reason my league switched to continuous waivers was so that when breaking news occurred (callup to majors, injury, new closer, etc.) the person with the highest waiver priority would have first chance at acquiring the player, rather then the person who saw the news first. We live on the east coast so when news breaks late at night, with waivers processing at 11:59PM PST, the person in our league who's up the latest will almost certainly…

Make searching for players with tilde lettering easier.
Players with tildes (˜ ) above their names do not appear when searched. This is HIGHLY annoying. Most of us do not have keyboards that add tildes above letters, and it's almost impossible to search for some people. For instance, if an owner were to search for "Alex Rodriguez" in the search bar, there would be no results because of the tilde above the "A" in his first name (Á). Please correct this! It makes searching for players a growing pain in the behind.
