I'll forward all suggestions to IT. I think we've made great progress on the back-end software and these final suggestions are all good ones. I'm pretty sure toggling between your teams for free agency is also on the To-Do List, but I'll check to make sure. Good stuff and thanks all.

A toggle between League standings would be good too.

At some point during the year there was a separate "recent activations" pulldown, but this was clunky and useless. I want to be able to sort ON THE FAAB PAGE by the most recently added players.

This is really, really important if you have multiple leagues and you are trying to keep up with FAAB. Please make this happen.

This is back on again. We needed to enhance this feature before making it live and those changes are now done. Enjoy.

When we toggle in the live scoring between teams it would be great to be able to have these in some type of order. I would suggest using the current order we list under the My Teams page.

For ex- I don't care to see my slow draft teams mixed in the Mains/Auctions/Supers. On the my page for teams I list the slow drafts at the bottom.

This is a very nice suggestion. Possibly the teams could be listed in the same order that we have them on our "My Teams" page.

for team stats have option in drop down box for last 7 days, last 14 days, last 21 days, last 28 days, just like you have on the FA page. this would save time on setting lineups (and deciding who to drop for FA)

This may not be a big deal but how about "Free agents" being placed under the "Transactions" bar rather than stats?

Not sure if I am in the minority or not but would love to see Monday through Sunday rosters under "Rosters" all week or at least until Friday instead of jumping to Friday right after the Monday games are set. I find myself always going back to the Monday roster alignment looking at games to be played/pitching starts/etc.

Another thing we could do last year that seems to be missing this year is to see the standings of various leagues. We see the teams and leagues in the live overall and you used to be able to click the league and see that league's standings. This year....you click on it and you get a blank screen.

The ability to swap a pitcher on Friday if he lands on the DL midweek. I have 2 of them... :x

We've tried that before and it just opens too many other happenings. We won't be swapping out pitchers on Friday's anytime soon in the NFBC. Sorry.

Here is a thought and maybe it is just me. I would love if we could adjust the order our pitchers are set on our lineup. Instead of being stuck with the random way they were loaded onto our team page. I like the idea of having my starting pitchers listed first, in order of their value to me, followed by my closers at the bottom. Based on match ups (or how many good closers I have) how I set my pitchers would change week to week.

I would like this.

rather than

Am I the only one that would see this as a nice improvement to viewing rosters/lineups?

Even if there was a way I could shift guys back and forth from my bench just to get it the way I want it. As of now, I cannot see how it is possible.

Interesting. When I load my pitching roster, this is what I see:

Cain, Matt
Darvish, Yu
Greinke, Zack
Moore, Matt
Niese, Jonathan
Parker, Jarrod
Ryu, Hyun-Jin
Soriano, Rafael
Wilhelmsen, Tom

KOQ,

First, congrats on what I consider to be a sensational staff. Having said that, did you arrange them that way some how or did the NFBC arrange your pitchers perfectly as a favor to the king? ;)

Nice pitching. Now I have to draft a staff in alphabetical order? You are always a step ahead.

I did not know they were in alpha order. Never noticed. very funny KoQ.

It would be nice if we could change this in my opinion.

This request is for those of us who have to keep track of over 20 teams... Is there a way to go to a player's page and be able to know which teams, if any, we have this player. For instance, if (when) Franklin Gutierrez gets injured and I need to replace him in my lineup(s), I can go to his player page and if I am logged in, it will tell me which teams I have him on.

Just a thought... not sure how much work this involves.. but it would be a cool feature.

On the free agent pages, when I hit % owned, it STILL lists all the 0% owned first, rather than the list of highest owned players. It is an annoyance.
