I'm all for the game allowing for 2 way players (and I do almost entirely fictional)... what I'm saying is that by default, the AI should take a 2 way player and do just one of the things with him for the most part. If you want to add a "use 2 way players" check or slider tied to era settings, I'd be totally OK with that; I'm just saying that I can list all of the players in the past century who pitched regularly and played in the field regularly (I'll include DH here) at the same time on one hand and still have a couple fingers left over. That in turn tells me that a realistic game, fictional or otherwise, should have these kinds of players be very rare.

Again, if what we want is yet another option in an already truly massive options menu, sure, let's do that. I kind of hope we don't miss the forest because of one or two pretty trees though.
