I agree with this. It would be great if we could have an extra tab to harvest our minor leaguers. Even better if there could be a Rookie draft. So we don't have to carry those long draft for about a month or two of people posting their picks on a msg board. 

  

Not fair to less knowledgeable baseball fans.  I invited my one friend to this league and he is doing good barely knowing things.  Also a knowledgeable owner dropped Byrce Harper because I said this isn't a keeper league he will stink this year, and of course I swept in and got him.  But you guys that know so much will be hoarding the young talent on your bench if you had 30 plus roster spots, that is 5 to many in my book.  If you want a unfair league like Real MLB Baseball (no salary cap) then go for your 30 plus league spots.  But then your just going to get 3-5 people/managers not touching their team once they lose every week.  League I am in now 12 people out of 12 touch their team and I have won a paid league before where there was 12 people and 10 touch their team, I will be more satisfied to win a free league where EVERYBODY touches their team, then I was for that W

  

The option for larger rosters and minor league rosters would only apply to private custom leagues. The standard public leagues would remain the same as always.

Many people prefer to form their own custom leagues with a commissioner and their own scoring system. Having the option to have larger rosters would make dynasty leagues work much better. CBS and ESPN offer this option and Yahoo does not.

Playing in private leagues is much more fun than public leagues because you can invite your friends to play with you instead of playing with a bunch of complete strangers on the Internet, most of whom are clueless kids that quit paying attention as soon as they realize they are not going to win. Winning a public league is way too easy, which makes it boring. Beating up on anonymous strangers is not much fun. Beating up on your friends is a blast!

I play in three dynasty leagues here on Yahoo and all 36 of our team owners are smart, dedicated fantasy baseball players. We don't have to worry about people quitting mid-season. We have 30 man rosters and 5 DL slots and there are still plenty of desirable players on the Free Agent list. In a dynasty league, minor league players are highly sought after. If you add Holds as a category it opens up all the middle relievers and set-up men as valuable fantasy players too. If you use custom settings it makes the game much more challenging and fun compared to just the basic rules used in public leagues. Try it, you will like it.

If you prefer the normal rules it is OK. This added option will not affect your league unless you want it to.

  

If you did that there would be no one on the FA market.  I don't think its a good idea.  My league we have 25 man rosters.  Why would you need 4 C's, 4 2b, and so on?

  

@MattL, that is a very good suggestion. Same exact functionality of the DL spot, just rename it. That would at least be a simple, quick solution to the problem. Yahoo would have to expand their player roster though to include more minor leaguers which they should do anyone to support more keeper and dynasty leagues.
