I'm not at my PS4 right now, but I went through the roster last night and found that there were two Babe Ruths, and both are starting pitchers.
Can you designate either as a two way player?
Nope. You can't change existing players in the rosters into two-way players. The 99 Ruth does have OF/1B as (unchangeable) secondary positions, but his primary position can only be SP/RP/CP. The other Ruth is an 87 with no secondary positions.

Its especially ironic looking at all the menu screens of Babe holding a bat lol. What a concept!
Exactly, seriously SDS you guys need to fix this and give us the Babe as we know him.

So last year a lot of us complained all year round to the team of SDS about the fact thatwe only had Babe Ruth as a Pitcher and we got zero reply to it at all. Now a new year another game MLB The Show 20 and again we only get the Babe as a pitcher. Why SDS ? Why not alsomake him available as a position player we all know and love him for ?
They don't even give us the option to change his pos to OF. Just ridiculous!

There is an option to solve this... Start a franchise in MLB the Show 18, continue franchise in 19, then continue it in 20... Ruth the hitter will be there... Not sure how that will effect current stats on all other players, might be 18 stats, but it’s an option, you can always play a 2020 franchise as well separately with all current stats....

Me and a bunch of others submitted the feedback to the support if everyone does that maybe it gets more attention.

Just did the same. Hopefully its addressed.

I think I figured out a way around this. Change his position to CP and the game will automatically put him at DH in the everyday lineup. I simmed a few games with this setup and he was in the starting lineup as a hitter in every one of them.

When Babe was added to 18 with all the fanfare that came with it, I'm fairly certain none of the gameplay trailers advertised him as a pitcher lol. This should be a common sense fix.
I don’t think anyone in the world gives a [censored] about babe Ruth the pitcher lol.

Well since you're a Yankee fan I'm sure you think of him purely as a hitter, but I'm sure there are Sox fans who like him as a pitcher.

I'm pretty sure 99% of baseball fans regardless of team think of Ruth as a hitter first and foremost lol.
No you're 100% right tbh I wonder what percentage of people don't even realize that Babe was a pitcher at one time.

I mean, I respect his time as a pitcher, but what use does it have when there are other guys who’s whole careers were pitching and they were light years better than Ruth?

Come on SDS 2 patches already and still no simple fix for this ? How come he was taken out to begin with in 19 as a position player?
-
Come on SDS.... It went all year last year unfixed... Can we please for the love of god fix this?
-
The new patch lists Ruth as being a two way player. Still no way to edit him to be a primary position player. Also if you change the two way player setting to No, it grays out and no way to change back. Extremely odd choices by SDS, its hard not to assume at this point they have him as a pitcher on purpose which is ludicrous.

I was just about to ask if this was addressed with the latest patch... Ughhhh
