Track your team's progress over time with our new roto standings graphs. Visit the league standings page and click the Graph View tab to get started.

This is a pretty cool tool. Everyone else had a chance to play around with it?

I noticed it too. Good feature, but the look and feel is only mediocre.

This is actually kind of hilarious. I'm sure others around here have created an Excel spreadsheet to track the standings as the season winds down so that you can notice trends you otherwise would miss and this is a great addition. The hilarious part is that they seem to have almost exactly copied the Excel look and feel. It was like looking at one of my old spreadsheets all over again.

I will admit that I'm kind of surprised they don't have a stat view though. In terms of graphing, that would be more important than the translated points graphs. In other words, knowing a manager has moved from -25 runs to just -5 runs is more important than knowing I'm still at 12 points and they're still at 11 points.

I think you can toggle between points and stats on the left side there.

Ah ha! I see it now. That should be a bit more prominent. And, honestly, it should be the default.

Still, minor tweaks. Overall good idea.

Oh wow. Cool feature. But like BH said, it could use some work.

Wonder what happened around June 6. There's a big dip where everything drops to zero for one day.
