Maybe it'll just take some time for him. Take Carlos Carrasco of the Indians, for instance. For the first few years, he was destined to be a starter but never really made it as a starter at first. He made some starts earlier this year, didn't do that well, and was then inserted into the bullpen, where he thrived for a period of time. After doing pretty well out of the bullpen, he was given another shot in the starting rotation. And since then, he's been doing quite well as a starter.
