    How do you put a starting pitcher in as a reliever?

    Last year I think you just hit R1 or L1 to go from starter to reliever, how do you do it this year?

      The only time it was useful was in a long extra inning game when your bullpen is fatigued.

          I think you can do it if you substitute in a SP as a pinch hitter. Im not sure though because i havent done it.

            In online head to head, at least, SPs cannot be used as pinch hitters.

                It's good because everyone would use up their starters first and it would become a cheese fest.
