I've always thought the contact rating was supposed to give an indication of what the player's likely batting average would be, not his BABIP. I can understanding wanting it to show the BABIP, but I've always felt that batting average is the more traditional way to look at it so it doesn't bother me. OOTP does use the BABIP, K, and Power ratings to determine hits. Obviously, if player A and player B have the same BABIP, but player B strikes out more, player A will have a higher batting average than player B in the same amount of PA's.
