I have a position player who is a good pitcher. I was in the 13th inning of a 5-5 game. I wanted to move this player from LF to pitch (the game would not allow this step), while moving the 1B to LF and the DH to 1B. Presumably this is not allowed by rule? I know that if the DH bats in that situation that the 1B has to be replaced by the pitcher hitting.

So I guess I was wondering two things. First off, should I be allowed to do the above? And secondly, I tried to move the LF to the pitcher area to pitch on the substitutions screen. The game would not allow me to so I am assuming that by rule that can't be done? Is it a game bug or did I attempt to do something that is not within the rules?
