Is the lower grade potential of already established players given to indicate that they have already peaked in their playing career. Not that they will severly decline, but that they are in the middle of their career and have already reached their full MLB potential. I do heavily disagree with some major discrepancies with certain all star's. That is my two cents .... thanks and have a good time

Well, I can see the logic behind that, but I have simmed 3 seasons with various teams and when guys like...
Cole Hamels
David Wright
Zack Greinke
...and more are declining by 6-10 overall ratings points per year--obviously not supposed to happen.
You also have to look at potential rating a little differently than simply a player's ceiling. Giving Lincecum a "B" even though he may never improve would actually, within the game, cause him to regress to a "B" player.
At least I think that's how it works.
