If everyone could remember their rosters, I would have already moved this bitch to yahoo. They really stepped up their game with their product this year.

Doesn't Yahoo completely shut baseball down until late January? ESPN's maintenance is a joke, but leagues not being open for months at a time on Yahoo during the offseason is just as big of a problem.

I don't care which site we use, but it is nice to have all 3 of mine on one site.

I'm fine with Yahoo. Seemingly all of DAT wants to switch also.

The weakness with Yahoo is their database is very limited. And newly-called players are not added to the DB until they've played (ESPN is just as bad on that). Supposedly they've increased the number of players in the DB this year. The league that I'm in that uses Yahoo is full of issues. Yahoo has generally been best suited for complete redraft leagues and not as well for keeper/dynasty leagues. I've heard good things about Fantrax.

Yahoo said this about this year's product
quote:

PROSPECTS. Tons of prospects. More than we've ever had, easily. More than you may actually want. These two kids are in the player pool...

Carlos Correa & Byron Buxton (USAT Images)
...as are Sano, Walker, Bradley, Baez, Bryant, Taveras, Tanaka, Abreu, Syndergaard, Russell, Almora, Appel, Lindor, Stephenson, Polanco, Castellan—

Well, you get the idea. We've added a giant pile of prospects to the player pool (100-plus) for the benefit of dynasty league gamers. Conveniently enough, we've also added this nifty little feature...
None of those names are really exotic though. I did try to pick up Polanco in TDBL last year, and he wasn't available on ESPN.

barry sent me a link yesterday. Yahoo's prospect database is plenty deep enough.

That being said, im not switching this shite again unless its back to cbs.

CBS sucks because your lineup is set after first pitch of the first game.

I bet ESPN will have added the ability to trade picks. That's their main issue I think

It really does suck, because that's the only issue I have with CBS. If they fixed that it would be far and away the best.

this is why tools left the league

One Platform to rule them all, One Platform to find them, One Platform to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
