In OOTP terms I don't think it matters which hand a guy throws with in the outfield. It matters a lot in the infield (although even there IMO the biggest reason why we haven't seen a left-hander play regularly on the right side of the infield since the 19th century is that if you are left-handed and have a strong enough arm to play 3rd base you are trained to be a pitcher when you're like 10) but in the outfield it really doesn't and I would be surprised if there was something in the game factoring it in, OOTP being a game that tends not to just add effects in if there isn't a compelling reason or a lot of statistical evidence for.
