In real life you cannot put a pitcher in the lineup while your team is at bat, so why should OOTP allow it? In real life, if you put someone who is normally a pitcher into the lineup, he is not a pitcher, but a pinch-hitter....He does not become a pitcher until the team takes the field. Same for any position.

If it is easy to program that you cannot set the position of ANY player while your team is on offense, I would be all for that.. Not only is it a problem with pitchers' wns, but games played at positions for players that never actually take the field...
