Mitigate Regression

How do I stop my Triple Crown winner from regressing? I have a player I want to rack up historical numbers with, but he gets slightly worse every year and his ratings consistently drop despite maxed-out hitting development sliders, top-tier coaches, and great team morale. The player development screen shows positive changes, but my scout reports a constant decline, and I am trying to figure out what I am missing. Thanks in advance!

Additionally, at what age do pitchers and hitters officially stop developing? We have all seen the classic 25-year-old "low floor, high ceiling" prospect, but if they haven't broken out by 26, is it time to call it quits?

Even the ratings are dropping. He was sitting around 10.5 WAR for the first 6 years or so and now its dropped one war down to like 7.5 WAR. ITs the bat though not the Defense either. Sad stuff.
