You've limited him to 2 times through the lineup.
There is a 'bonus' for the batter each time they face a pitcher and it increases significantly on third time around just as in real life... google for such info for an idea of how ootp has it modeled.
maybe number of type of pitches impacts that?
in my experience a 2-pitch pitchers are a almost universally a horrible SP. Maybe a 2-pitch knuckleballer? If the majority of that damage is augmented more during that third time through vs SP with 3+ pitch types of some minimumal servicable quality, then you'd be avoiding that potential cause of what i see. just guessing here, but possible.
as an RP, there isn't as much range of pitch count... ~30 for all but the ones with minimal stamina. maybe 40 with a high stamina and ~20 for the lower?
if he has 3+ pitches and you need an SP, i'd use him as one. Even if you keep the 18BF limit. unless you know you can get more IP over time.. seems unlikely due to how each type recovers from fatigue.
