Of course, Ohtani isn't a gold glove SS. We'll watch things closely, and see what we can do to make sure the AI uses and values him "reasonably".

The AI has never been able to use a two way player. Set them as a pitcher and they aren't even an option in the lineup, Set them as a hitter and the AI will never use them as a Pitcher no matter how good they are.
You have to control the lineups yourself for it to work, even with a "perfect" player the AI has never been able to use them more then one way.
If possible make lineups see everyone as players and not pitcher/batter. AI take into account fielding/hitting for offence and look at pitcher ratings to set the rotation. Or make it so Pitchers are an option on offense, and Batters are considered by the AI to pitch
