    Default Yahoo Keeper+Farm League

    I was wondering (and am hoping this is posted in the right area):

    Can you start up a keeper league and have farm system functionality from Yahoo? Basically we have been playing for a few years doing one year at a time. Starting this coming season, we want to keep 3 players off of our current rosters but also get a farm draft + a pro draft going, but I dont know if this is even possible with Yahoo. We want the ability to bring up/send down players from our minors team based on the amount of games they have played pro. I know Fantrax gets in to crazy stuff like this, but is any of this possible in Yahoo?

    G A (+/-) PIM PPP SHP SoG HIT BLK / W GAA SV SHO

    Just switch to Fantrax, it's free as long as you don't use any of their "fancy" features

    Yeah, but if you actually try to control the minor league at all in Fantrax you need the premium version ($79.99 annually). The only free option in fantrax is "having" minors - if you want to actually control it with any sort of rules (like player eligibility, etc) then you need to pay. But yes, Fantrax is still better than Yahoo if you want to incorporate this. For yahoo, you'd have to just do a spreadsheet and do it all manually.

    Not as far as I know. A few of my dynasty's run off of Yahoo and we use Proboards for our rookie drafts, trades, discussions etc while Yahoo is mainly just for stat keeping. Hopefully its a feature they can integrate sooner or later.

    you don't have to track eligibility in fantrax though, depending on how your league works it can be quite simple to track it offline
    14 team H2H fantasy points league
    G=3 A=2 PPP=1.5 PIM/Hits/BS=0.25
    W=4 SO=6 GA=-1.25 SV=0.15

    How do you work sending down to/bringing up from your farm team?

    Do you just manually track games played and have a hold period on FA pickups?
