When your defense is below average, Stuff is going to become more important, because with bad defense behind him, it's harder for a pitcher to get outs any other way than by strikeouts. I don't know if you checked your BABIP total for your league, but 50/100 position ratings in OOTP are well below average (in one of my standard fictional leagues, the average rating for starting LFs is in the mid-80s). If your low defensive ratings have inflated BABIP, that may account for your finding that Stuff is more important than other ratings.
