Thirteen awards, each one a number you can check. Everything here is computed from Yahoo's own per-category results for every completed week — not from the standings, which only tell you who your schedule happened to be. Open any card to see where the other eleven finished.
Single-Week Records
Luck: Category Points Won vs Earned
Measured in category points, because that is what the table is kept in — seeds are set by categories won plus half a point per tie, not by matchup record. Expected is what a manager would have averaged each week against all eleven opponents rather than the one they drew. A bar to the right means the schedule paid them points their categories had not earned. One point here is one point of Pct, so these are big numbers, not rounding.
Playing Up, Playing Down
Each manager's weekly category points regressed against the strength of the opponent they faced. Every slope is negative — good teams beat you — so what is plotted is each manager's slope against the league average of categories per point of opponent strength. To the right of zero is a manager who holds up when the opposition is good; to the left is one who only eats when the food is easy.
Every Number on the Board
Sorted by all-play. AP is the all-play win rate, L8 and L4 the same over the last eight and last four weeks. Str and Wk are average category points against the top and bottom half of the league. Cat luck is category points above what the whole-league average would have given them; hover it for the matchup-luck equivalent.

How Each Number Is Built
All-play replays every completed week as if each team had faced all eleven others on that week's twelve categories. A category the two sides tie splits half a win, exactly as Yahoo scores it. Over a full season that is a 231-game record, which is enough for who you drew to stop mattering.
Innings minimums. Missing 50 innings in a week forfeits all five pitching categories. Week 1 ran Wednesday to Sunday, all twelve teams finished under 50, and every one of them still won pitching categories — Yahoo waived the minimum for the short week, so it is excluded. Judging a manager for missing a minimum that was never enforced would be the worst mistake on this page.
Source. Yahoo's public fantasy API — per-category winners and innings pitched for every matchup of the season, plus the full transaction log. The reconstructed category records match Yahoo's published standings exactly for all twelve teams, which is the check that says the parsing is right.
