I wouldn't play a 2 way player in CF, unless really good. Don't want to risk an injury killing both his pitching and batting.

Anyway, I don't think switching between (position) and (pitcher) is an exploit. Remember that every position tracks fatigue in another way. A reliever throwing 10 pitches is fine, a starter throwing 10 pitches is exhausted the day afterwards. A SP will be the day afterwards totally exhausted for SP purposes, but I don't know whether this is correct for batting purposes.
