Potential in terms of OOTP is turned off for PT. But there is a max defensive rating that every player can learn for every position. The only thing that changes the defensive rating is experience playing the position. So you can make a player play shortstop and his SS rating will improve, but his range, arm, turn double play and error rating will not. It will improve until it gets to his maximum rating based on his other ratings, usually after about 200 games. There are exceptions such as catchers being way slower at improving and lefthanded players not being able to improve their infield ratings at anything other than 1B.
Think of it in terms of natural ability (doesn't change) in combination with experience (does change).
