Liriano simply may have reached his peak early on.
Also, something very important to remember: OOTP does not know names. It has no idea who Johan Santana is. All it knows is the ratings it is given. If Santana is rated a little more poorly than maybe he should be, that's a roster design issue (or non-issue, depending on your viewpoint). In OOTP, you may get a very nicely rated player have an absolute dog of a year (rare) or he may put together a career season.
Not everyone performs exactly as you expect them to all the time. That would get boring.

Ok, lets hope my 7 game losing streak ends against KC, who are even worse than me

Just got swept by the Chicago White Sox ...
But what about this:
"In my last game Anaheim's Kelvim Escobar (Endurance 69) was a bad as my starter Kyle Lohse. Such games happen ... Escobar gave up hits and BB's. The problem was that he didn't really tire, and threw only strikes from the 5th or 6th inning on. He ended up with 186 (!!!) pitches thrown. Is this a known bug?"
