I purposely make guys like that, who have better hitting ratings than the typical pitcher, "two-way players" so that the AI will consider them as a pinch hitter for another pitcher when all other options have been exhausted. It is kind of like designating Madison Bumgarner as a "2-way" player so the AI will use him as a pinch hitter just like he was used in real life. If you don't designate them as such, then the AI will never look to them as a possible pinch hitter, even in an 18 inning game that depletes your entire bench.
