Catcher fatigue

Would it be possible to track catcher fatigue similar to pitcher fatigue? The catcher gets a stat for "pitches caught", and this determines his fatigue the same way "pitches thrown" determines pitcher fatigue. Then, if a game goes deep to extra innings our catcher will be fatigued as he should be, as well as if he's catching a lot of games without rest, but we could rest him by allowing him to DH or play first base if he's a good hitter instead of having him sit out entirely.
