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!
