Got it it got it. So the WBC version is based on him closing, makes sense. Have you been able to use him as a 2-way with his SP versions? Jw if it’s really possible
There should be two WBC versions of him. One as a SP and one as a CP.
-
I’m using the SP version. Now that I think of it, I actually think you can use him as DH with the CP version because you can pinch hit with a reliever but not a starter

The CP version does not have the secondary positions.

That’s so dumb. I definitely can’t use him as a hitter with the WBC SP version

The SP version should work. I have been using him as a 2-way with him pitching and DHing. But this has not been in BR, but that shouldn't matter.
Are you setting him up in both the rotation and as the DH prior to the game as in the lineup screen of the BR main menu area?
-
How do you do it? Is it as easy as changing his position in the lineup? Because I’m not seeing a way to do that
-
I had him my rotation and DH in the starter showdown,his LS card which is an SP, should be no different for his WBC SP card.

He’s not an option in the lineup screen in the main BR menu nor is he an option right before the game starts

It was a showdown, and yes in the lineup screen he already was in rotation and was able to put him in as DH,hit in every game and the one moment that was pitching,he pitched it.
The only problem was I couldn't change his spot in the lineup,had to put in someone else at DH,change the DH spot in the order then put Ohtani back in at DH -

I haven't played Showdown or BR yet. But, I figured out you have to set him up in the normal lineup screen and cannot try to make the change before the game or in a game.

Yeah I see the difference when I play exhibition, anybody can be put as DH (including SP) but for BR only bench players can be put as DH prior to the game, and in the middle of a game you can only put a bench player or relief pitcher as DH

If that is the case, hopefully SDS will fix that issue!

Glad it’s not just me hitting this issue. I also drafted Ohtani as my first BR pick only to find him useless as he’s only a SP and can’t be used as a hitter. It’s very frustrating.
The simple solution is for SDS to allow SPs to be added to the lineup and used as pinch hitters. If you can use a RP in that fashion it’s a one line code change to allow SPs as well.
Fix it SDS!
-
Lol still cant use Ohtani as a two way player
-
Just like in the tech test, same with the jerseys. These issues were reported in the tech test. Wonder why it hasn't been addressed and also wonder what else was left untouched.

There is a chase Pack starting pitcher version you can use as a DH.
