So if there's a player who has decent stats & ratings as both a pitcher and an outfielder, but OOTP is only seeing him as a pitcher - meaning he's not showing up on the Team > Lineups panel when All Batters is selected as the filter, and is therefore not considered by the AI Bench Coach when selecting lineups, what can be done about this?

I'm not in control of this team. I just want OOTP AI to properly evaluate and use him. I suppose I could go to his strategy page and check the Use as Two-Way Player checkbox, but I'm thinking that OOTP should look at his stats & resulting ratings and already see him as such...

In my experience this could apply to a bunch of players but in this case I am referring to Charles Doyle in 1901. In addition to pitching in 28 games, he had 524 AB's and a .292 average, with 85 games as an outfielder.
