So if you are playing to win at a video game, then leave him in.
However if you are trying to immerse yourself as a real-life manager, then I'd think you should be ready to pull him out much earlier, say if he gives up a couple more base runners in the next inning or two. Unless bullpen is in bad shape, most managers IRL won't leave a starter out there to get pounded.

How can a person immerse themselves as a real life manager when the game is not set up to respond to real life like decisions?
