Worst fantasy baseball app
Logan Z.
This is the least user-friendly fantasy baseball app between the big 3 (CBS, Yahoo and ESPN). You have to go through multiple pages to do the simplest tasks (adding probable pitchers), and nothing is where it should be. Why isn’t there a tab on the list of tabs to add a player? Instead, I have to select My Team, click a plus sign, and even then I can’t filter by probable pitchers. The “main” screen is useless and doesn’t lead you anywhere. This was created by people who don’t play fantasy people and who didn’t consult people who play fantasy baseball. The only reason I use this app is because I’m in a league run by 60+ year old dinosaurs who still justify paying for free fantasy sports and think the internet is the devil. Look at Yahoo/ESPN, mirror that, then this app will be 10x better.
How does this have 4+ stars?

It’s better than nothing, but it’s still a steaming pile of dog feces. The interface is just not good. When a player gets put on the IL and you add a player, you don’t really know for sure if you’re dropping the injured player or putting him on IL until submit the transaction because the interface is so confusing. You have to flip to a separate tab to view your pitchers for some reason. I don’t know why they can’t just put them under the batters like espn does. There are also only the league stats categories available. If you want to know how many times your players have walked, you have to click on each individual player. But the biggest issue is the waiver wire. You can’t search for players based on stats categories, which is really the only way to actually find players. They have limited time periods to search (last 7 days, last 14 days, last 21 days, last 28 days). And there is no way to qualify players based on how much they play. If you’re looking for a guy who has a good era, you have to sift through 50 relievers before you can find a starter, and you can only find a starter based on your own pre existing knowledge or guessing by how many inning and strikeouts he has. It’s practically impossible to use the app to pick up pitchers. It seems like they desperately want you to just follow their projections, even though most of the “experts” projecting aren’t very good at it.

The app is flawed. The website is flawed. There are multiple areas of user interface that are not good with both the app and the website. I have been involved in fantasy baseball for 25 years and your site seems to get less user friendly every year. I would be happy to talk to someone who understands fantasy sports about this.
Poor UI

Want to see all daily stats without scrolling. I choose web version almost 100 pct of the time.
Pathetic Customer Support

App interface leaves off information and statistical information you would find on webpage. Glad my league is more casual because I have a pw issue to access my app to make adjustments and I have been waiting 2 days for customer support to assist. Pathetic.
Needs improvement.

Compared to other fantasy platforms, it just doesn't hold up. One major flaw is that it seems the ads on the app cause audio on my iPhone to stop playing. Truth be told, since I am paying for CBS Commissioner, there shouldn't be any ads at all. As an avid podcast listener, this issue is especially annoying.
