That can't work.

The team would just announce him as the starting pitcher every day of the suspension and then replace him with someone else. A starter going every 5 days is a team decision, not a league rule.

Sadly the only way to make it fair is just make the suspension 5 times longer than it would be for a position player, but that would never happen.
