If you paid market value for an allegedly reliable starter on draft day, no one would blame you for wanting to stay true through the dark times. So, you're sticking with your Chris Archer, your Masahiro Tanaka, your Jose Berrios -- the results are less than ideal, but what other recourse do you have?
