The value has to be changed. This is a problem I've never noticed in past versions of OOTP. It seems to be exaggerated in 2016.
Your reliever will be exhausted after the game when he pitches on a second day, but when you progress to the following day he will usually show up as simply "tired." If you rest him that day, he will almost certainly be available the next day. You should be able to use most relievers 5 days in 7, based on resting them every third day in that manner. For example:

Mon: Pitch
Tue: Pitch
Wed: Rest
Thu: Pitch
Fri: Pitch
Sat: Rest
Sun: Pitch

That has been my experience on default modern settings in OOTP 16. If that's not possible, then your reliever has abnormally low stamina or something is weird about your settings.
