Any advice on using the Find A Player screen?

I'm getting a lot of "No players match the criteria"

Sorry I was on the wrong screen. This is for the 'Player Search and Short List. I will have another go at it below.

We would have to know what your search is. The shortlist only works if you have a short list, so make sure you are on the Player Search tab. Avoid the absolute 'is' for things like BA or ERA. Also on the left is the 'View'. I am not sure why but sometimes you don't get a complete list on the default view and you have to change to to say 'Batting Stats 1'. Also remember that BA have the . before the number. There is no such thing as a 250 BA but there is such a thing as .250.

Give us some details of your league and search filter and we can help you out more.

Second try.

Make sure you have a box check on the upper left like 'Search All Leagues'. If you are looking for hitters click on the Hitters button and maybe start by just searching everyone with the default settings and than slowly add more criteria until you narrow down the list. Don't narrow your search too much right at the beginning. There really aren't all that many catchers batting over .280 with a WAR of 7.0 and Power of 12 for example example.

Also, if you have just created a new league remember that none of the players have any stats yet, so you can't search on things like BA or ERA yet.
