I'm generating some history for a dynasty league I've been wanting to run, and I just set league totals to match 1984 - IOW, the totals are even more in favor of pitchers than in Skydog's settings, although the lower amount of Ks probably means there aren't as many extreme guys so that may balance things out a bit. So far, I'm getting a guy with a sub-2.00 ERA right around every other year, which is just about exactly where things really were during the decade of my youth. It's also for the most part the same guys flirting with the low ERAs every year.
It's something of a known issue that pitchers in OOTP are a bit more stable than they are in real life, which is something of a problem with fictional leagues but a near-necessity for historical ones so there's a bit of a trade-off. Nobody - or at least very few people - want to play out leagues where there's nearly as great a chance that Brad Holman strings together a couple of good seasons as Jose Lima, even though that may be more realistic. Pitching is pretty chaotic.
