I'm not sure where you got that number. They're averaging about 4.5 IP per start during the losing streak, including the game where Lynch didn't even get through the 1st inning. Outside of that game, starters are averaging about 5-6 IP during the streak.
As I mentioned, Duffy-Singer-Keller will be fine. Obviously, when you have a shitty start where the rookie gives up 300 runs in the 1st inning, that's going to skew the stats a little. The starters have given up 3 ER or fewer in 6 of the 9 losses during the streak.
