Problems with Ohtani? ***UPDATE****

PostThu Mar 10, 2022 4:28 pm

Hey all, I seem to be having a problem when I list Ohtani as a DH. My team is complete playerwise (with all the requirements met.) But the "fill out your draft list" and then the "rank your players" are not checked, and it won't let me join a league.

I tried dropping Ohtani, picking him up as a pitcher, and that seemed to work. However, I don't want to do that, since if you don't get him, then replacement player would be a P, instead of a DH?

Anyone else having that issue?
Thanks,
Randy

About Shohei Ohtani in this player set

For the first time in Strat-O-Matic Baseball 365, Shohei Ohtani is able to both pitch and hit in the same game using his 2 individual pitching and hitting cards.
Previously, in the 2018 season and 2021 Baseball Daily player sets, he had 2 different cards but you could only own one of them at a time.
Now, he is one single player that comes with both cards that simulates the double threat he is in real life.

To draft him in an Auto List Draft league, you would list him once on your draft list, in either your Pitchers or Hitters section, but not both.
Where you list him dictates the kind of replacement you would receive if you lose out on him in the Auto Draft.
For example, if you add his pitching card to your draft list and another team beats you to him in the Auto Draft, you would receive a starting pitcher as a replacement.
If you add his hitting card and lose out on him, you would receive a position player as a replacement.

In a DH league, you may start him at DH in your lineups, and in games where he is the starting pitcher, he will hit for himself in that spot
(although, like in real life, it would be considered the pitcher's spot and you would play without the DH for that game.
When a relief pitcher replaces him on the mound, that pitcher replaces him in the lineup).

In a non-DH league, you may not put him in your starting lineups as he is not rated at any field position.
He would bat 9th using his own hitting card when he pitches, but the computer may move him higher if your lineup is partially blank or in the event of injuries.

Any injury that he suffers at the plate will keep him off the mound for the same number of days, and vice versa.
Any limit on the maximum length of a given injury would be based on his real-life AB+BB if it's at the plate, or his real-life IP if it's on the mound.
Therefore, in the 2021 season set:

- In a league using the Standard Injury System (most common), his 600+ real-life AB+BB limits his injuries at the plate to 3 additional days,
but on the mound he didn't have enough real-life IP to limit him from suffering a possible maximum injury of 15 additional days.

- In a league using the Super-Advanced Injury System (rare), his 600+ real-life AB+BB limits his injuries at the plate to 3 additional days,
and on the mound his 20+ real-life starts limit his injuries on the mound to 30 additional days.
