It’s covered in one of the tips:

Unless you are really being risky, don't bother putting players in to work on something where their current rating is already at the potential. In this case, only an outstanding outcome will be beneficial, since they won't have room to improve their current rating. Granted, you can always put guys into programs to improve their pitches, or defense, or speed, etc., since those don't have a potential cap.
