Set up another league but similar results with BA about 10-15 points low. Went back to ootp22 and set up another league from scratch and results were very good.
Can someone set up a random league from scratch and see how their results are?
I guess I’ll go back to 22 for now.

Does messing around with BABIP help? How are the 2B/AB, 3B/AB, HR/AB etc numbers in "Historical Simulation Accuracy" looking, as compared with the year you're choosing for a base year?
Do you have any familiarity with DrDoom's Database Converter? It's in the OOTPMods section. Click on OOTPMods, and scroll down, and you should see a thread there. At least this way, you can transfer players' biographical and stats info from OOTP23 into OOTP22, and thus you can have all the players and stats you would've gotten in OOTP23, in OOTP22, until OOTP23 gets sorted out. I did this with the 2020 historical info from OOTP22 into OOTP21, and I'm gonna do it again with OOTP23 into OOTP21.
I have a 35 season game going, that I don't want to leave behind, and I don't want to move through to another version, so it offers a good solution for me. It does mean you miss out on the new features of each version, but I want a 150 season game dammit, and this is the only way I see of doing it, while still getting good Vlad, good Bo, good Teoscar, good Lourdes, and Alek Manoah into my game. Jordan Romano's already entered, so he'll be crappy 2019 Jordan Romano in perpetuity, but the others (obviously Manoah hasn't 'cause he won't exist until OOTP23) haven't entered, so I can get them as their best, most up to date selves.
You can find the OOTP22 Database Converter (with instructions)
here, and, according to poster ldambrosa, the OOTP22 one still works with OOTP23. There are instructions for the OOTP21 Database Converter that work for the OOTP22 one, as it's basically the same setup, but some of the files changed between OOTP21 and 22.
I don't know if this league wide stats problem can be fixed, and we may have to mess around until we find a way to have the base years we want. I would think it'll mess up vanilla historical games as well. Anybody try doing a regular historical game of the season you want to use as a base for your stats, and comparing the stats output from that, with what you're seeing? So, somewhere in the 1980s for you, Reed, and 2011 for you, Beirnej1. If it does the same thing, we've got a bug that can be reported, and (hopefully) fixed. If it doesn't then we're back to the drawing board, and experimenting all over again. I'm sure we can figure out a way around it eventually, but in the meantime 22's probably your best bet. That's all I can think of, for now.
