Obviously there arent any superstuds that year in real life but there were some solid guys.

The early 70s was a relatively poor hitting era, so that is about all you can expect. If you set talent to career or peak you should see better ratings, but for the import year, I wouldn't expect too much. What you are seeing is definitely not a function of the DB, just reality for that time period. Our stats are taken from Lahman's DB, the only adjustments are to players' debut years and the war years.
