The reason is highly correlated with the DB you use. If you use the Lahman DB, Nap Lajoie will import in 1901, when he hit .426, with very high contact ratings. Cobb, will import in 1905 when he had a cup of coffee and did poorly. As a result, he starts with very low ratings and even though he has high potential ratings, he rarely will reach it. Try to import him in 1906 or 07 or using Arod/Garlon DB (assuming they have fixed this issue).
