Error in Handling Two-Way Players

[rpriske]

I am playing in a semi-historical set-up and in 1991 I ran across an AL player who started the game as a pitcher but also stayed in to hit (like Ohtani).

When he left the game as a pitcher, he became the DH.

That only became legal this past year. It was certainly not the rule in 1991.

Check your rules page. I think there's a box you can uncheck and it will prohibit what you just described. I think it's checked by default.

This is Great. My problem is that I can't get OOTP to slot Ohtani as the DH (despite being in my regular line up) on opening day because he is the SP.
WTF?

I didn't know this was a rule now. See i need to go make some changes in a few leagues.
