position player pitching?
-
I don't know if this is a feature yet, but yesterday Rowdy Tellez relieved and I think it would be cool if you could use position players as relievers.
-
If the player is not designated as a two-way player in the game, then you cannot sub him in as a relief pitcher. I agree, this restriction should be lifted. But, given you don't manage the roster in RTTS, then the only game modes where it would apply would be Franchise and perhaps Diamond Dynasty. But, since DD is a game-by-game mode, I don't know that mop up relief would have much meaning in that mode either.

You actually can pitch with positional players done it for years.

@MLBNETWORK365_PSN so explain to us how you do it in a game in road to the show or franchise mode
-
@MLBNETWORK365_PSN kind of odd how you get called out and you still can't explain how to use position players in pitching you have to post a link. You can't even say yourself
-
Dude I'm the one who posted the directions on OS no need to repeat it here. Since you want to be rude figure it out yourself!

Even in real baseball there are certain restrictions on when a non-two way player can pitch.
"Position players will only be permitted to pitch in extra innings, or in the ninth inning when the leading team is up by 10 or more runs, or when the trailing team is down by eight or more runs."
How often is this scenario presenting itself to you in RTTS?

@MLBNETWORK365_PSN why not show us how it's done during an online ranked season game

@jake93436_PSN since you can’t figure it out and can’t seem to click links I’ll tell you.
When you play a game, pause and change your dh to another position on the substitution menu. Then your pitcher becomes a hitter in your lineup since you lost your dh.
And finally after that once your pitcher comes up to hit just pinch hit for them and wow!!! You get a position player pitching. I can explain it more if you can’t figure it out

@theBlindRhino_PSN I was mostly wanting to use it in franchise mode, it would be most appropriate this way as you manage the team.
