Technically yes. If someone went 0-20 and was imported, their ratings would be adjusted up to some replacement level caliber of player.
Anything under the "weaken" line will push players towards a replacement level of player. Anything under the "adjust" line will push them to some level somewhere between replacement level and average. It's just that mostly people care more about some player going 1-4 with a HR and having a power rating higher than Aaron Judge, than whether someone is a 20 vs a 25 overall.
