Contact is an amalgamation of BABIP + Power, not a straight rating. So Player A would have a super high BABIP score. Player B would be average. Given the same number of at bats, Player A would hit for a better average just because the BABIP score is much higher.
But the question is why would the last .400 hitter in the major leagues have a PEAK card that results in a mediocre batting average?
