Position Player/Reliever

JustChris · 04-11-2025, 12:48 PM

I ran some tests on this and can't determine if it's possible. I have a relief pitcher/3B I want to use as a Setup man and a bench bat. I have him set as a two-way player in his strategy presets.

For the first two months of the season, each day he played in the field, he didn't pitch, and vice-versa. Is there any preset/strategy adjustment I can make so that he can start the game at, say, third base, and then enter as a setup man, like you might see in college baseball?

(I'm not sure I want him to do this but I want to know if it's possible.)

I don't think there is currently a way to set this up so that the AI will do this (sounds like a good feature request).

Others might be able to comment on whether it is possible to do while manually playing out a game.
