Usage:
1. Create a Google spreadsheet in this format:
Column 1: Column 2: Column 3: Column 4:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yahoo League ID: [yahoo league id]
Team: [team name 1] [yahoo team number]
[player 1] [yahoo player id] [player note]
[player n] [yahoo player id] [player note]
Team: [team name 1] [yahoo team number]
[player 1] [yahoo player id] [player note]
[player n] [yahoo player id] [player note]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
...then publish it. Here's an example: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pp2eo2em...
2. Click 'More publishing options' to get the 'TXT' version of the URL.
It will be something like this:
http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pp2eo2em...
UPDATE: Here's a demo
3. Edit the spreadsheet so that it has the correct rosters and Yahoo player numbers.
Make sure the league identifier is correct in the first line.
4. Install this script and then change the included pages for this script to match your league in this format:
http://baseball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/bn/nnnn*
5. When you refresh the page the first time, you'll be prompted for the URL of the TXT version of the document.
Paste it in the dialog, and you should be good to go.
