COVID IL
Will players who test positive for Covid-19 be eligible for an IL spot immediately?
I am thinking of adding an extra IL spot to deal with this. Otherwise maybe an extra bench spot.

Adding or changing position eligibility is rare, however certain trends may result in updating a player’s eligibility. We’ll pass your feedback along to our data provider.

Pre draft rankings (Basketball/Baseball)
Changing your Pre Draft ranking is a nightmare. There has to be a better way than Drag and Drop. Oh wait, there is. Just visit FantasyPro or Rorowire...PLEASE. (download/upload)
My guess is that your techies do not participate in Yahoo Fantasy Sports or, if they do, they have never tried to Edit/Change the Draft order. Who'd want to do that?125th rankedThanks for your feedback. We’ll pass this along to our team.

Android Mobile : Matchup screen: Selecting a day in the past should only display the statistics from that date
On the Yahoo Sports Android mobile app, in the Matchup screen, there is ability to filter by "Week" or by "Date". If you select "Totals", you see the summed Total from the entire week. If you choose a specific date in the past like "Tue, Oct 19" I would expect to see only the statistics from "Tue, Oct 19" but it is still showing the entire "Totals" from the week.

let me see the projected AVERAGES
Taking away the ability to see a players projected stats in the form of averages (or at least making it impossible to find out how to see those stats in that form) and forcing us to see only projected totals is criminal. it ruined my season from the second the draft started. Im incredibly disappointed in this oversight and will almost certainly move my league back to ESPN if this does not change next year.
49th rankedThanks for reaching out about this. I’ve reached out to our product team to look into this.

Kyrie should be SG eligible
Kyrie Irving is playing more time at the SG now. He said so himself in an interview and also Cleaning the Glass in listing him as a combo guard for this season. At the same time, James Harden is listed as the Point Guard on Cleaning the Glass with a higher Assist Rate and a higher Assist to Usage Ratio.
Furthermore, Kyrie is taking more shots and Harden is taking more playmaking responsibilities. This is clearly a no-brainer to me.https://cleaningtheglass.com/stats/player/1487#tab-offensive_overview

Position Eligibility Control
In the future, will you please consider allowing the commissioner of the league to control position eligibility? This is one of the weakest areas of Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball. Yahoo! is slow to make changes, and it would be much easier if the league could control this. Thanks!

Post more stats in Matchup tab for NBA Box Score
When clicking on NBA scores, and opening up the box score, the page defaults you to the "Matchup" tab, giving the user stats of the players:
Min
Reb
Ast
Stl
Blk
PtsTo get more stats like FGs, Turnovers, 3pt, you have to individually click on the teams name. To compare the performance of a two players on opposite team, you have to keep flipping between those two tabs to see.
My suggestion: Provide the stats left out of matchup back to matchup like it was couple months ago before the change.
Thank you.

Let someone in a Public league ask Yahoo to push the "Start Active Players" button for someone who has not accessed their account
Allow someone in a public league to request that Yahoo press the "Start Active Players" button for a manager who is clearly not playing any longer, so that there can be some sportsmanship. Allow people to vote on it as we do now with trades.

The position eligibility of K.Irving should be "PG/SG"
After the trade including James Harden, Harden is playing as a primary playmaker and a ball handler of the BKN best lineup.
And Irving puts all his energy into the scoring.When it comes to this issue, Irving said that he is a shooting guard.
For more detail, please refer to the link I have given below.

https://twitter.com/Alex__Schiffer/status/1360806824367169537?
Therefore, I think K.Irving should have SG position eligibility at this point.
Thanks for consideration.

Free Agent Filter -- "Today's Games"
For all sports, would it be possible to add a filter in the Free Agent Player pool to filter by players who have a game that current day? ESPN offers this (Playing filter +dropdown = "Today's Games") and is a useful filter for sorting players that will actually play that particular day you are adding for.
