The ratings are a reflection of the underlying stats.

Development is driven by, among other things, playing time.

A simplified example

A player is created who has underlying stats of a .150 batting average(at the major league level). That batting average is reflected as a 20 (on the 20-80 scale) contact rating. The player plays full time in the rookie league and produces a .300 rookie league batting average.
The player also "develops" . At the end of the season the underlying stats are for a .175 batting average. This is reflected as a 25 contact rating.

That's a simplified version of my understanding of the game.

Thanks for taking the time to respond. So stats CAN actually drive ratings then? I had seen this incorrectly on other parts of the forum, if so.
