As others have stated, the DP and FLEX are not interchangable players as many people believe. Too often coaches have two players that they want to interchange on defense, so they make one the DP and the other the FLEX. This is absolutely the WRONG thing to do.
The key here is that the DP can substitute freely on defense for any player other than the FLEX.
The best way to accomplish what you are trying to do is to have your worst hitter be your FLEX player and put your two F3s into the batting order; one as F3 and rhe orher as DP with say F9 as the FLEX. That way you can swap your F3s at will without affecting the lineup. If you want to give the FLEX a chance to bat, you can let her bat once, then re-enter the DP with no penalty.
