Yes, all of the defensive ratings can improve, at least while a player is young, though they can also drop if a player gains a lot of weight. You'll know often, through international scouting, discover a 16 year old shortstop who doesn't look capable of playing the position, but over time his ratings will often rise to a level where he can be decent. That was one of the most important changes to the defensive model in OOTP14 - in earlier versions of OOTP those ratings were static until a player started to age, and then they'd fall off a cliff pretty quickly. Speed and Stealing can also improve with time, though I'm not sure about Baserunning.
