and that's on a pretty high resolution. If I put my computer at 1024 x 768, the navigational bar, menu and page title cover half of the page.

This new bar is pretty annoying. You should at least make it so that we have to click on the icons for the menus to show up. 99.9% of the people on the NFBC website want to stay on there, not go somewhere else and this new bar makes the navigation even more complicated. As soon as we scroll over an ...

Agreed and I'd love to see that for the league and overall standings as well.

It would be useful to know how our team is doing overall in the past month etc.

What's the problem with Turner?

I don't know how the cutline scoring works but in standard leagues I'd still take Turner ahead of everyone except Betts and Trout for rest of the year.

I drafted 4 teams this year and after I drafted my first one I was ecstatic, lots of players I loved dropped to me and after all my drafts were completed it was still the team I felt the best about after the draft. Then Bumgarner, Eaton, Kiermaier and Kershaw got hurt, Osuna did something stupid, Gi...

It seems like it's been getting slower and slower every week. First few weeks it was 15-20 minutes, last week was almost 45 minutes I believe

MLB rules state that all the stats are counted on the day of the original game so stats should be added to this week's totals based on this week's lineup when the game is completed, whenever that is. Barry Bonds played his first game on May 30th 1986 yet he has an RBI single on April 20th because he...

Yes I do and if he's on my roster he is worth plugging in when I need him. That's the point of a bench. This has happened 4 times already and it's May! So let's say it happens 6 more times that's 10 starts or 10 RP. So conservatively I'm going to say 60 k's, 4 wins, 1 save 4.0 era and 1.25 whip. Th...

Phillipe27 you do realize that Thor was to have a 2 start next week right? So by him being pushed back and having a 2 start this week he won't be having one next week. So you DID NOT gain a start you still lost a start and in a season long league any missed start can lose you your league. I was cou...

It gives an edge to someone who is sitting by his computer at 9:30 PM every Tuesday night to make that decision. I just looked at the MLB Transactions so far this year. Found all the fantasy relevant pitchers who were placed on the DL on a Tuesday or Wednesday and it's happened about 12 times so far...

Ok Philippe, Doughboys and whoever is of the opinion that alternatives to current rules will be more time consuming: Under current rules. Lineup changes are possible Monday, Tuesday, Friday (hitters only). Alternative: Player lock instead of team lock, lineup freeze after Tuesday night games, and m...

Syndergaard's start has been postponed until Tuesday so I would have had to check and make a switch on a Saturday afternoon to switch to another starter... I'll already be getting a two start week next week so who cares that I get a zero this week. It's a season long game not a daily game. The busi...

I started playing this game last year and put a lot of time into it and it's worth it but any additional rule change that complicates things or is more time consuming will scare people away and that's not good for business. Yes most of the time I follow games and check stats every morning but in the...

I brought this up in another thread but it seemed to have a few positive comments so thought it deserved it's own topic to see the general pulse. First I just want to say that I'm 100% against DL Spots, especially in 15 team leagues but I think this solution could be a compromise. My idea would be t...

I don't see the dates either and when your own winning bids fall on a grey line, it's not highlighted in green like it should be.

I think you're complicating things. The rule says that unsigned free agents at the time of the draft are available in all leagues. Yes the rule slso says that Free agent pickups during the season will include players who are on major-league rosters at the time. However the keyword there is includes....

Yeah I don't understand the rule the same way either. It's not clear but it doesn't say anywhere that they need to be removed.

Not sure the purpose of the alternate grey lines but it’s very, very annoying. I've complained about zero changes but this is unreadable. I don't even want to look at thegre standings page anymore. It was actually far better than stats looked in my opinion but now it's horrible Agreed and the Set L...

I think we all agree that injuries suck and would prefer to have a league where everyone stays healthy. The one thing I like about baseball is that with 23 players starting for 27 weeks, even if your 1st round pick is out for 2-3 months, it doesn't hurt nearly as much as it would in football and the...

Would it be possible to get an additional way of looking at overall standings? A one page view that shows us how many points in each category with either position or percentile (or both) for each category? When you go to Overall Standings there is a pulldown called Select Category to the right of W...

Agreed with the recommendations just above and another one I'd like is to add a column called Highest Bid on My Bid History page. I know we can see it on the FAAB results page but it would be fun to have quick look at all our bids for the week and see how much we missed the highest bid.

Having DL spots or more reserve spots wouldn't make it easier to deal with injuries. It would just mean that everyone would stash players early in the year and then leave only scrubs on the Free Agents. At least now if you have a player who has a season ending injury in June, you can pick up a decen...

It would be nice to have a search box for all leagues like last year instead of individually like you described on the Free Agents page. When a player gets hurt, it's nice to be able to search if his replacement is available in any of our leagues by searching in one spot rather than in all the indiv...
