I'm new to the game but I've done a lot of research into this because this was driving me crazy until I figured it out.
So if you want you can manually change a pitcher to a hitter by exporting the roster and changing the Hold Runners rating. You can't do it by editing the ratings as commissioner because you aren't allowed to set a rating to 0.
Hope that helps.

Good news for those who like to match up historical players if true. Can anyone verify (I'm away from my game computer atm)?
Doesn't help genuine 2-way players however. (My "Gladiator Ball" League - 12 players per team, all can bat, all can pitch, not in OOTP).
