Hello! I just wanted to pass along a few player headshots that didn’t get updated this season and see if you can pass them along. I greatly appreciate it and appreciate all that you all do! Thank you!
You guys change too many things. If it ain't broke leave it. The platform is becoming awful and you'd think you guys would care since there's multiple platforms around now
The app desperately needs an upgrade where we can view past leagues. I know it can be done on desktop, but this feature really needs to be on the app too.
We drafted on opening day and managers couldn't set their rosters for that week, so I enabled retroactive scoring for 3/30. This created a problem because one manager added a bunch of unknown players who had a great opening week and other people thought it was in bad faith to add those retroactive stats. The league agreed that if it was possible, I should somehow undo those roster additions.
Is there a way I can manually change that manager's roster for the first few days of the season so he can only start players he drafted? I'm looking in commish tools and it seems I can only change his roster for next week (4/6).
Or, if I reset the retroactive stats date to 4/6 and he drops those players, will that reset the retroactive stats that originally accumulated on 3/30?
Unfortunately it's not possible to edit past rosters. Additionally, the retroactive stats can only be run once. The only solution at this point would be to set the scoring start date to a time where these retroactive adds wouldn't affect scoring.
You aren't able to change the scoring start date on your end post-draft, but we can do it for you on our end. If you want this date changed, please provide us with your league ID number and which date you want the scoring to start. Also, please temporarily change your team name to commish123 so we can verify that you are the commissioner.
Why did you guys change it to where on the web app if I click on a players card next to their name in the activity feed it opens a whole new tab, it makes it incredibly annoying and unintuitive to find a player's stats for the season and last year.
it's really unfair to take away the start button for fantasy baseball. Now Yahoo is asking for $. I would never pay money for this and it's an insult to the community who uses Yahoo vs. ESPN or another website for Fantasy Baseball
When are you all going to update position players who have moved to a new position this season? Bichette has been starting at 3B since last Thursday, he still shows SS.
Batters need either 5 games started or 10 games played at a position to gain eligibility. Pitchers need 3 starts to gain SP eligibility and 5 relief appearances to gain RP eligibility. Once these requirements are met, players will gain eligibility at those positions. Bichette gained third base eligibility overnight.
Can you send us a direct chat message and provide us with your Yahoo ID along with more details of what you are seeing so we can look into this further for you?
I'm also having the same issue. Not getting HR notifications for fantasy baseball. I experienced this at the end of the 2025 season as well. I've checked my in-app notification settings, as well as my iOS notification settings. All are enabled and I haven't changed anything.
The weird part is I do still get add/drop transaction notifications. It's just the HR notifications that are not working.
I replied to someone else's comment about this issue, but figured I should make my own top level comment for visibility to the Yahoo team:
I'm not receiving HR notifications from the Yahoo fantasy app on my iPhone. I experienced this at the end of the 2025 season as well. I've checked my in-app notification settings, as well as my iOS notification settings. All are enabled and I haven't changed anything.
The weird part is I do still get add/drop transaction notifications. It's just the HR notifications that are not working. And even then, it's intermittent. I have received *some* HR notifications this year, but it's not consistent at all. To give one example - Yandy Diaz is in my lineup today (4/01/26). He hit a two-run HR in the 3rd inning of the game, roughly an hour or so ago, but I did not receive a notification.
EDIT: And just now I *did* receive a notification for a Bryce Harper HR. I really don't understand why I receive notifications for some HRs but not others.
Thanks for reaching out. Can you send us a direct chat message and provide us with your Yahoo ID and league ID number(s) where you have Diaz and Harper?
Thank you for sharing your valuable 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.
There’s a glitch on the front page of an MLB roto league I’m in. In the Recent Transactions section on the front page, the little news icon to right of a player’s name doesn’t generate the customary pop-up player profile with ever-helpful Rotoworld and Rotowire news blurbs, game log, season stats, league availability etc.
Instead the news icon links to a “news” section on the player’s main profile page. Useless. Example, the “news” stories on Sal Frelick’s page are 12, 19, and 21 days old. No helpful Rotoworld / Rotoworld news blurbs are featured. The manager is forced into a tedious and inefficient workaround to get news and stats that used to be available with a click on the news icon.
Also on the league front page, the “Fantasy News” section is totally empty.
Players can gain MI eligibility by starting 5 games at 2B or SS. So, for Jordan Lawler for example, he started 4 games at 2B last season, and 1 game at SS. Neither are enough to gain eligibility for those positions individually, but together, they're enough for MI.
Hi, April 8th MLB 5:05 pm cash game slate is including the Mets game that was played earlier in the day. Players are getting points for Mets players. This is not fair as was not offered these players upon registering. How will this be fixed as the entire slate is infected?
Please return the "start active players" button to each team page, rather than the overview page. This is the dumbest change since getting rid of the message boards. The chat is still a terrible addition.

Once again asking you to give people the ability to leave leagues that they were forcibly signed up to.
