I had no fatigue issues, although I set his pitch limit at 100, so he was going six innings mostly unless he threw a gem and might go seven or eight.
But what you are saying is, you need to change his position every few days from SP to CF/DH, and you need to take him out of the rotation and put him into the lineup? Then back again when his turn to pitch comes around again?

I just checked - you can insert a pitcher into the depth chart and lineup, but what happens if he is also in the pitching rotation and his turn comes up?
