I remember when Sean Marshall played in the outfield as a Cub and later switched back to pitcher in that game

A lot of people fail to realize that pitchers don’t become pitchers until they get to the MLB. They pretty much all we’re position players that occasionally pitched throughout their high school and college years. I would say a good majority of them were infielders, so it’s not really anything to send them out there and see them get the job done. The difference is that you can’t really pull a position player and have them pitch. You see it sometimes in spring training or blowouts, but they’re just there to end the game and save the pitchers arms. They’re not going to make any sort of impression. Some of them can throw pretty hard, but they don’t have the movement and technique that makes MLB pitchers effective.

I always looked at a relationship between the positions. I started catching when I was in 5th grade. As i got older and had to compete against catchers with better throwing ability, coaches could easily put me at third or first, seeing how i wasnt that fast. I could also play left or right field. Shortstops cam easily transfer to second and center field. I tell my nephew, who trows and bats lefty and is faster than i was, to play alot of first base because that will get him on most teams. If there is a better first baseman they can put him in the outfield at any position because of his speed.

Catchers already play first base on partial off days. I know that Carlos Ruiz once made an emergency pitching appearance but that's it.

If a pitcher plays outfield. YOU ARE NOT RUNNING ON HIM.

This is awesome

I genuinely did not know a pitcher could be taken out of the pitcher position and then go straight back to the pitcher position after a batter

Don't know why mlb acts so surprised about pitchers playing positions. They are athlete's!

I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often. Most pitchers are true athletes ( love to see Colon at another position). Preparing for these types of situations should be routine......

You had us going there until you mentioned Colon. Seriously, I had the same thought, but you could say that about most players in MLB. Probably most of them pitched at one time or another, and most pitchers played positions when they weren't pitching. These guys would have been the best overall athletes in whatever league or whatever level they were playing at.

I don’t really know a lot of baseball so if anyone here knows baseball really good I got a question for you? If a pitcher comes out in the 7th... Can he go play outfield or any other position or do they have to sit out for the rest of the game?

If he leaves the game he is done, however if he goes strait from pitcher to the outfield, he is still in the game

You should do Hunter Pence Giants highlights! Great vids btw

Cool

Pitchers play outfield ALL the time when batting practice takes place. Whats so amazing about a pitcher in the outfield?

Very rare

is this still legal or did they screw it up ? jesse orosco in RF is crazy

I wish they let everyone play everywhere. That would be so entertaining

Im looking to play in the MLB when im older but im debating to play pitcher cause im the best pitcher in my leauge with 156 K and 45 walks but im also a short stop and I am good at both but im really good at hitting and playing short cause im smaller and quicker and have more power and my average speed for my signature fastball is 79 mps and that is fast for my age at 11 and im getting advice from my cousin who pitched in the MLB of the ups and downs but im leaning towards pitching
