I find that a Legendary (or close to) pitching coach can make quite a difference.

In my own experience, I see this with bullpens in terms of guys not living up to their ratings, but usually not as much with starters. Your experience definitely seems outside the norm.

I also don't think adjusting your league to make it more pitching-orientated will help. If you have say the 12th best pitching staff in the league statistically, you'll likely have the 12th best pitching staff regardless the league modifiers or so I would think.
