Well, I don't think you are using this DB because Munson and Concepcion don't import until 1970. Their debut year was 1969 but since they had so few at bats we have them debut in the year when they really began playing. Otherwise, you would get incredibly low ratings and players would never develop, which is what you found. My guess is you used the Lahman DB. Ankit's DB and subsequently ours was created to avoid such problems with historical sims. Most players had few games when they debut, so OOTP ratings are so low that it is unlikely you or the AI would give them any playing time to develop into full timers.
Just to check, I started a 1969 league using our DB and all of the ratings seem appropriate so it is not this DB.
