Now that being said, we've seen some reports that when historical players are imported, as opposed to coming in naturally as part of a full historical league, that their potentials are importing too low. So that's likely another part of the issue here.
This is on our list of things to look at for future patches, but I don't believe it's been changed yet.

I've done ten-to-fifteen historical import drafts in fictional leagues, from all eras, and from the historical season (if i am in 1972, I am importing 1972 rookies). Pitchers are not being drafted in the first round at all. 24 Team leagues, or even 32 team leagues. When I fast forward 10 to 15 years of simmed results, historical pitchers are, at best, 3 stars (3rd, 4th starters). Does not matter if they are Cole Hamels, Carl Hubble, or Curt Schilling. All these pitchers get drafted as 2 or 2 1/2 star players. Prior to patch 2 - they were drafted as 4 or 5 star (potential) players, but would quickly drop after a year down to 2 or 2 1/2 star players.
Hope this helps!
