hitters with high babips and solid ratings will usually perform much better than .300 babip's sometimes as high as .400+ and the bad hitters can be as low as .180 or so babip's
BABIP takes a lot of at bats to normalize so a guy with the same ratings from age 24-27 years can have 4 years with babips of say .250/.290/.310/.350 even if his ratings don't change so its good to not over react to a few bad months of unlucky/bad babip if a guys ratings haven't changed. Stadium effects can make a huge difference as the NYM/OAK stadiums really hurt offensive production and Coors/Washington really help hitters.

My pitchers strike out a lot of batters and allow the fewest HRs in the NL. They have the lowest ERA. They allow the fewest runs. They have one of the worst BABIP in the NL. They're highly successful at preventing runs so why should I try to fix the BABIP "problem?"

Why do people use different players, different lineups, different strategy, development, talent change randomness, and the development lab, but judge the game on whether it produces historical statistics?
