Oh he can hit alright! He's the Japanese Ted Williams lol




For you guys using him at the dish in the Show,
is he raking it?

i was wrong about this guy he is a top 3 P and a 25 HR guy the Angles when 6 years is up will need to sign him for 300 mil

Considering what he’s doing right now and that he is 100% if the time in baseball headlines, it’s a complete oversight that he can’t be in the starting lineup as a DH

If the developers really wanted too add to this and promote the game even more and have the biggest major headlines on this sport in their game they have to patch this in. And make it like they did with the haircut with hutch meaning dissent matter if we already started our franchise they went overboard to get him in the game and did the comontary to say 2 way player yet oversight this.

It's a misfire, it's a misstep, it's a lot of things but oversight isn't one of them. The dev's aren't sitting around in San Diego saying, "I didn't add 2-way player capability. I thought you did."
There ARE plenty of oversights in the commentary though. I cant stand to hear Dan "Mushmouth" Plesac talk about Brandon McCarthy being 210 pounds. I will give SDS credit though, they removed Plesac's line about McCarthy's nonexistent slider lol

Just did a play now with the Angels at home. Picked Ohtani as my pitcher and it had him at DH as well, the game did this, I did not put him at pitcher and DH (which isnt correct as there can be no DH if he hits on days he pitches). Game is glitched out when he comes up to bat. You cant hit with him, it just freezes the movement of the players, and if you pinch hit for him the pinch hitter stands on home plate blocking the view of the pitcher and you bat with Ohtani.

Lol, gotta love how ever pitcher is “jecyl and Hyde” too lines

could this be fixed with either roster update/patch so that we can utilize Ohtani as it should be?

Highly doubtful. Because they have to change the way they’ve coded it I think.
