a default quickstart or any other template that comes with teh game shouldn't have this problem.

go to Stats and AI and autocalculate the modifiers -- only available during preseason. i suggest opening day before any game is played (really anytime between when the ai sends their ST players down and opening day is best -- just in case they are disproportionately included in the calculation if on mlb roster??).

if after that you still get certain pitchers with elevated stats relative to what you want to see, you may need to reduce certain power stats or hits modifiers etc..

don't change th totals, simple reduce the modifiers.. e.g. too many home runs, then reduce the HR LTM after you click auto-calculate an additional amount.

tip: don't autocaclulate every year. it is not mean for that type of use. it merely callibrates the totals/modifiers and current players in your league to "jive". after you click, the league-wide results should be ~close to the league totals. minor ajdustments may be wanted after taht for individual results.

fyi, i think you are allowing a small sample to be a bit too important. relative to the new totals used, homeruns are sky high and a league wide ~4.30era is more likely than the ~3.8-4.00 you saw immediately following the crack down on steroids a decade ago... theres going to be more sp with ~6 era now than the previous 10 years in RL. if the league era elevates nearly ~10% it must be expected. the average to below average guys will soak up a larger portion of the increase too.

they clearly have some new designer steroirds, because in real life they just hit ~600 more hr than ever before, including known steroid-riddled years. so, what we got used to with the low-offense seasons that followed the crackdown is not how things are currently or for the forseeable future.

** if you see a league ERA of ~4.50-5.00 in peak years, then you may have too much offense... if it's 4.30-4.40 in a peak year, it's probably fine. simply adjust teh modifiers on stats and ai, and it is solved.
