I suggest another approach...
It appears that your original edit was done with SD footage. Therefore, even though you are working with footage that is now sans-pulldown, the original edit rate used by the timeline coming into the AVID is 30i SD frame rate. Avid is expecting a 30 fps count, even though it is working with 23.98FPS sources. If this is the case, you will see some of your timecode in and out frames exceed 23 in the frames column.
I suggest you bring in your original sequence to the AVID, then use the MODIFY>Format command, to convert the sequence to the format of your tapes (720p 23.98?).
Then when you de-compose the sequence, use the "Expert Decompose" setting, checking show sources. Make sure that the source tapes format pulldown matches your tape sources (There is a bug in 8.3, for example, that after converting a sequence, still leaves the tapes in SD format.) After ensuring the sources have the correct format selected, complete the decompose, and try digitizing the newly created clips.
I routinely have to use the above workflow when assembling a show edited in SD NTSC, from HD 23.98 sources. When doing the capture for SD, they have to add 3:2 pulldown, and the frame counts are all 30i. Even if you capture 23.98 NTSC, it still "thinks" in 30 fps.
As an alternative, export your timeline to EDLs and import them to AVID, rebuild the timeline and decompose that, but that is a real PITA.

Sounds like you need to check the "Relax Coincidence Point Detection" box in deck preferences setting. Many 3rd party I/O devices need this checked in order to not get that error.
I've also had on rare occasions projects that would not batch capture but would capture the same clip if I manually entered the in and out into the capture tool. Trashing the .avs file in the Avid project corrected that problem. If that is a contributing factor, which I doubt in your case, try creating a new project and open the decompose bin and see if it batch captures then.
My money is on the Relax Coincidence Point Detection.
