Player's Options

Got to thinking today about the MLB and Player's Options.

I know there's a set number that each player has for the amount of times they are sent down.

But what happens to a players options if they change position in specific from a Pitcher to a fielder or a fielder to a Pitcher for example Adam Loewen and Sergio Santos?

Any info on this would be great.

Thanks

Options are not based on position. Options are yearly, so if you are up and down three times during one season it is only one option. After three options the club must keep him on the 25 man roster or risk losing the player through wavers.
